Modern drummers are required to be masters of a dizzying variety of genres. Any drummer worth their salt will be expected to be able to roll out rock, swing, latin, bebop, hip hop, funk, metal...maybe even polka grooves! Because of these expectations, drummers should equip themselves with gear that sounds good across the board. They need cymbals with strong enough projection for their rock songs but a light enough touch for jazz...No fear, Paiste...
