Powerhouse Lenny White with favor of restrained funk and intention of putting the rock back into jazz-rock, collaborated to create these cymbals to be unusual and unique to his sound. Crashes are dark and downright forceful, open with blast of high frequencies which slice through, giving impressive projection, the opening brightness nips back quickly but lingers on within deeper - and still penetrating even while subsiding - decay. Rides have unusual and attractive shape, are deep, earthy and fairly trashy, depending on where is played, they produce some quite distinct tones: near the bell they are dark while on the shoulder they are actually brighter, and beyond the hooked edge they are mysteriously oriental and thinner. Hats are bright and cutting yet at the same time warm and full-bodied defying such conventions, produce delicious blend of deep, earthy tones beneath the sizzling attack. Stepping gives hats fat chick while laying into them with relaxed pedal foot leaves them fizzing with enthusiasm.
