(reveriedrums.com).   On this episode I speak with Timothy Roberts of Reverie Drum Co.  Timothy Roberts Handcrafted Cymbals are made with the highest quality B20 bronze, hand-hammered, and lathed into incredibly expressive and nuanced cymbals for all styles. Whether you have an old cymbal you’d like reworked or you’d like a custom creation, Timothy is dedicated to bringing out the best a cymbal has to offer.   www.reveriedrums.com   About Timothy:   In addition to manufacturing drums, cymbals, and percussion instruments, he is a new father.  Timothy is a professional studio and live musician with 50+ album credits and extensive work as an on-call musician. His passion for sound exploration led him to crafting the instruments that he plays. His team consists of only a few highly trained and skilled craftsmen who are all musicians. They have a value that every piece produced is crafted with care and attention to detail. Their belief is that “We don’t sell anything we wouldn’t (or haven’t) used in musical situations ourselves!”.   Rob Cook (Author, Chicago Drum Show Owner): www.Rebeats.com Chicago Drum Show: www.rebeats.com/drumshows_start_page.html Drumming News Network: www.DrummingNewsNetwork.com
