    the engraving on the cymbal "Royal Harmonie" - orchestra "Aalst" - place in Begium "Gift from Mr. Victor Keppens" - self explanatory "1911" - for completeness

    drums are truly the only hobby in the world where you can hit something that’s 100+ years old with a piece of wood and have people be ok with it

    Maybe I'm just a simple man, but that rivet sizzle sounds fantastic.
  • @YokiDokiPanic
    I love the sound the rivets make! Sounds like sparkling water made out of metal.

    NOT boring time. I recently found out that I've been beating on a 13" thin crash from the late 40's for about 25 years. I've been using it as part of a stack since I had to rig together a mount to fit the small hole.

    A neighbor had an 18 inch cymbal stamped "Zildjian Constantinople" on it. It was SO trashy sounding, and dark. Super low pitched. The edge had dents in them, but no cracks. It was so dirty there was no way to clean it and make it shiny. My neighbor moved to Finland and left me that cymbal and an 18 inch floor tom. I had no idea what I had, and just wanted to play hard rock. So I was only into Bright cutting cymbals, like a Sabian HH Rock Crash, or Zildjian Ping Ride. When I gave up on drumming to go travel the world I sold it all. Somebody scored big.

    That’s an old shiny odd noisy flying disk you got there mate
  • Howly, that engraved text says its a gift to the royal harmonic orchestra of aalst, a city in belgium. How did it end up all the way on the other side of the planet 😂

    I actually love that one's sound. It doesn't shimmer. But it sizzles. Those little rivets just dancing around long after the hit look magical.

    it's depression song... BUT IT'S LEWIS HAMILTON BOXING
  • @lewisyc0201
    I think that has to be the sparkliest sounding cymbal I've ever heard
  • @Kochiha
    The scream of primal rage makes the Cymbal Toss music fit even better.
  • @davidwilson6577
    Not a lot of volume, but what an awesome sound. Like a breeze through a warehouse filled with pins suspended on strings.
  • @MostlyMustard_
    THIS IS WHAT DRUM THING NEEDS TO BE not like every single video, but like a cymbol showcase with some history, and some jammin with it, and i love how you slipped in the comparison symbol
  • @dr.doodles5524
    Hear me out: You should try to recreate the cover of the cymbal book with all the cymbals they used

    I was at the Zildjian 400th anniversary event in London. Converted me from Meinl to Zildjy
