Chasing Vintage Cymbals / Modern Recreations | Cymbal Sounds - Ep. 21

The pursuit of that “vintage sound” is paradoxical at best and often full of irony in the world of cymbals. Are you chasing cymbals that came from a specific era, played by the greats of the time? Those definitely don’t sound like they did back then. Are you looking for new cymbals that have been made to sound like vintage cymbals sound today? Again, those won’t sound like the recordings. So what is it we’re really after? Is it the aesthetic; the wear and tear of an old cymbal, perhaps imitated with various forms of patina? This episode is part of a series launched in 2020 on Patreon.
