Dark Matter is heavy and totally un-lathed. While not at all gongy, they certainly can ring a bit more than a traditional lighter cymbal. The stick response is fantastic.

They currently come in two flavors, the Dark Matter Energy Rides and the Dark Matter Flat Earth Rides. The grand-daddy of the Dark Matter family will be available shortly, the Dark Matter Moon Rides: these are quite heavy, very dry and cutting. Not for the faint of heart.

Based on the Energy Crash, the Dark Matter version is complex, explosive and raw all at the same time. Dream Dark Matter cymbals are created from a proprietary process where the cymbals are fired twice. The extreme stresses from this process create a cymbal that is so fundamentally complex, they take months of aging to mature.

Features:

• Explosive.
• A secret weapon.
• Micro lathed by hand before refiring.
• Completely unlathed bell.
• Medium taper, gradual bridge.
