Turkish Cymbals Dark Hammer Sizzle Ride – Dark shimmer
The Dark Hammer Sizzle Ride by Turkish Cymbals is a ride cymbal with sizzle rivets that add a long, sustained shimmer to the Dark Hammer sound. Like the whole series, it owes its horizontal stripes to lathing, oven firing and a special acid treatment. This process gives it the dry, direct core character that the sizzle effect builds on. With its Medium-Thin build, it responds quickly and sensitively.
Sound character: dry, articulate and shimmering
The stick sound stays clear and focused – typical of Dark Hammer – while the rivets produce an even, gentle hiss that gives the sound a warm, lively texture. The lathed, oven-fired bell delivers a dark, deep tone. Played softly, the cymbal sounds restrained and controlled; dig in harder and a broad, layered wash opens up. That makes the Sizzle Ride just as suited to precise ride patterns as to flowing, atmospheric soundscapes.
Applications: traditional jazz, jazz fusion, soul, R'n'B, Latin, funk and grunge
The Dark Hammer Sizzle Ride appeals to drummers looking for a ride sound with a special atmosphere. In traditional jazz and jazz fusion, the rivets lay a floating bed of sound beneath your playing – one that recalls classic jazz recordings. Soul and R'n'B grooves gain an organic touch. In Latin, funk and grunge, the Dark Hammer foundation provides directness and cut, which the sizzle effect enriches with an extra tonal colour. If you’d rather play without rivets, go for the Dark Hammer Ride.
Craftsmanship from Istanbul – At the Best Price
Every Dark Hammer cymbal is made in the workshops of Turkish Cymbals in Istanbul, where handmade B20 bronze cymbals have been crafted for more than 25 years. The bronze – 80% copper, 20% tin – is cast by hand, heated in traditional furnaces and hammered by experienced master craftsmen, stroke by stroke. Only then does the cymbal receive its stripe pattern, in several stages – a process that takes a great deal of experience with the material. Because casting and hammering are done by hand, every Dark Hammer cymbal sounds just a little different. At Cymballand, as the official partner of Turkish Cymbals, we bring this craft straight to you – no middlemen.
