96 - American Cymbal Master - NickyMoon Percussion

Send us Fan MailWhere the backbeats meet the spirits. In the second episode of our series on percussion manufacturers, we have Nick Margarite, American Cymbal Master, and owner of NickyMoon Custom Cymbals. He talks about how he sought out how to become a cymbal smith, how cymbals are made, and a little history about modern cymbals. We could have spent more time talking about these topics. Also, don't forget to support indie percussion companies like Nick's. In Four Beats or Less:Who’s on your Mt Rushmore of drummersWhat’s your most important tool in the workshop?Would you rather meet an alien or walk on the moon?I know you’re a coffee guy, so DD or Starbucks?
