The drum is probably the oldest musical instrument known to man; yet over thousands of years, its basic design has not changed much. Drums were perhaps first created from the primal idea of mimicking the human heartbeat, yet today percussion music has developed into a technical, complex arrangement of beats and grooves. What has changed are the materials and sound production technology of modern drum kits.
A new school of drum kits hit the market over 30 years ago, forever changing the face of percussion: the electronic drum. With drummers all of a sudden having the flexibility and range of sound of say…a guitar player, they found a new world of sound, new songs and new approaches to playing.
