Murat Diril Cymbals — Proud Endorser
I’m proud to be an endorsing artist for Murat Diril Cymbals, whose handcrafted instruments offer an extraordinary range of musical colors, textures, and expression.
My cymbal collection includes selections from the Arena, Mosaic, Renaissance, Black Sea, and Two-Face series. Rather than using one fixed configuration, I select different combinations to suit each musical setting, from acoustic jazz to electronic and experimental music.
I also enjoy experimenting with cymbal stacks, combining different sounds to create unique textures and effects.
