Review: "Trash Sets combine medium-sized (and fairly inexpensive) nickel-silver bottom cymbals with smaller (and really inexpensive) brass cymbals for a trashy, white-noise sort of effect (and an appealing low price). The top cymbals are heavily hammered, with edges somewhat resembling Paiste’s Sound Edge rippled hi-hat bottoms. This “wave” prevents the top cymbal from marrying fully with the bottom one. The bottom cymbals have an inverted outer lip. (That is, the flange points down.) Three versions are available: 12" (top) / 16" (bottom), 14"/18",and 16"/20".
I took the 14"/18" set to a Miles Davis Bitches Brew tribute gig. Why not? That music was arguably the forerunner of contemporary funky styles. Smiles from the band indicated I had made the right choice. When played alone, the 18" cymbal was large enough to yield a funky (and, of course, trashy) China sound. Even with both cymbals tensioned loose and flapping, double-strokes came out distinctly, while strokes on the bottom cymbal lip were broad and effective. Ideas were flying at me with such rapidity that I found it necessary to force myself to use this Trash Set more sparingly!"
