About DeliveryThe Byzance Extra Dry series offers a seriously dark tone and a wash so dry it must have evaporated. It’s a fairly niche sound, but it’s a good sound - one you probably realise you didn't want until you hear it.
However, once heard, never forgotten - the Byzance Extra Dry Hi-Hats have an earthy, raw personality that cuts through the initial dry sharpness and leaves you wondering what you just heard. We absolutely love how direct and powerful these hats sound.
The first thing you will notice is that the cymbals are ‘unfinished’ in a raw style - no lathing has taken place and so they look as they did straight out of the forge - a pleasing, naturally-pitted burned alloy with a warm, rich colour. Individually, they offer a dry, rich sound with a highly musical voice, but together these cymbals work against each other and the result is somewhat special.
The heavy bottom emits a chunky stick ‘chick’ and the lightweight top offers a dry, dark response and a super-rapid decay, and combined we have a set of hats that are all about the dark, powerful attack.
