Stanton Moore Series Trash Crash features uneven wobbly edges and deeply hammered pockets on the playing surface. The sound is trashy, as the name implies, yet it is warm enough to ride on. The pitch is low and mellow. The timbre has a distinct, sharp ping in the attack, and an exotic balanced body. Bosphorus worked for two years with Stanton on the development of his signature series cymbals. The results capture the funky, earthy quality of Stanton’s trademark sound. The tops are traditionally lathed with warm tonal grooves, while the bottoms are lathed with the distinctive wider ridges associated with the Bosphorus New Orleans series. The sound is 100% Stanton—raw, and aggressive, but always musical and extremely funky. Together these cymbals give Stanton the kind of balanced attack he requires as he takes traditional second line drumming into tomorrow.
