DreamDark Matter Energy Ride 22 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The 22 in. Dark Matter Energy Ride is voiced around dry, gritty texture while retaining clear stick definition. A shoulder strike brings out a trashier expansion that disappears quickly, so different sticking approaches produce notably different responses. Dream uses repeated firing in the Dark Matter process and says the cymbal evolves as it is played. Listed details include hand hammering, bow lathing, cast-alloy material, a raw bell, and a proprietary gray finish with a charred appearance.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players seeking a 22 in. ride with dry grit and clearly defined stick sound.
