Electronic alternatives to acoustic instruments have a rocky history of success, and while decades of technological refinement have led to convincing alternatives and new ways of approaching sound, drums may be one of the most divisive. Whether it’s about form, function, or both, eDrums are as fervently championed as they are vehemently derided, yet DW saw a unique opportunity to apply their half-century of world-class expertise to devise a groundbreaking solution: DWe drums. Marking their first foray into the world of electrified rhythm, DWe drums offer an unprecedented proposition of acoustic-electric excellence, blending the physical and musical elements of acoustic shells with cutting-edge electronic control and versatility. Could it really be done? We asked our resident professor of percussion, NDV, to take the DWe drums for a spin to find out if they can truly bridge these two rhythmic worlds. Check it out!
