We're always on the lookout for cool new sounds that can take the acoustic kit somewhere new and unchartered. When we came across Baldman Percussion we found that they had a whole raft of products designed to do just that.
Baldman are based out of Nashville and have been around since 2019 and have already won two NAMM best in show awards for their unique percussion products. Players such as Matt Chamberlain, Aaron Sterling and Travis Barker are among a stellar line up of A-List artists already using these crazy new inventions.
Junk Hat - The Chain Dropping, 808 Sounding Analog Machine!
Here we have The Junk Hat Big Mini. It's mini... but it's the BIG mini. Measuring in at 10.5 inches across, you get that same JUNK HAT sound, but with a bit more high and attack peering though. The Junk Hat is for any drummer who wants 808 clap & snare sounds, killer cross stick and wood block style effects.
The wooden top is finished in dark walnut stain with interwoven chains and the hand hammered metal bottom. The playing possibilities are simply infinite, drummers across the world are already putting the junk hat to great and varied use.
The Junk Hat can be mounted on either a Hi-Hat stand which allows the most versatile operation or if you prefer it can be mounted on a snare stand too. We've also seen drummers using the top as a snare drum or floor tom overlay allowing the chains on the underside to dampen and resonate with the drum.
There is no right or wrong way to approach playing the Junk Hat, what will you do with it?
