Drums and Percussion can be broken down into several categories, mainly; Acoustic Drumsets, Electric Drums (which includes Electric Drumsets) and Percussion.
Each category is filled with sub categories as the world of drumming is vary comprehensive. At Music Minds, we are reviewing both the popular drums and percussion and looking for the gems that might not be on everyone’s radar.
We’ll take a look at each instrument to dissect its quality, price and overall value and help determine if it’s appropriate for beginners, intermediate or professional musicians. If the instrument is expensive, we’ll let you know why we think it’s worth it or if it is overpriced. If the instrument is cheap, we’ll let you know if it’s a good deal or a piece of junk.
I can’t think of an electronic drumset better than the Roland TD30kv. The sound module is as good as it gets and the hardware and mesh pads are so dynamic and responsive that it is as close to playing an acoustic drumset as you can get while enjoying all the perks of digital drumming.
The Tama Star Bubinga drumset is a top tier set of drums, worthy of any stage. These drums feature ultra dense Bubinga wood that makes for an incredible sounding drum set.
The Roland TD25kv series electronic drumsets are some of my favorite electronic drumsets available today. While they may be expensive compared to the beginner electronic drumsets, they are very reasonably priced when compared to high end professional electronic drumset models.
