Mishkin, are an up-and-coming Leeds band with plenty of following stretching throughout the UK. Jonny has been asked to help for a couple of gigs after their throne-sitting-bone-shaking-drummer boy Bradie, broke his hand in what was believed to be a drunken fall down some stairs.

PlayRecord hopes that Mr Bradie’s hand will be better soon and that our in house drummer, Jonny, will soon return to his usual early nights and bright eyed enthusiasm at work when the toll of rocking-out with a heavy metal band comes to an end.

Rim Risers provide increased height, giving better grip on the stick and greater player comfort. A huge impact on cross-stick or rim shot playing styles, without interfering with standard stick snare drum playing styles.

They come with a full fitting kit and instructions. RimRisers can be quickly fitted or removed and require no permanent modifications to the snare drum.

The RimRisers are available from playrecord.net in both the Black and Chrome finish.

There are two packs which include mutes for a full drum kit, the Rock Set Sizes – 12″, 13″ & 16″ toms with 14″ snare and the Fusion Set Sizes – 10″, 12″ & 14″ toms with 14″ snare.

Each pack includes 3 tom head mutes and a snare head mute.

Both packs also include a heavy duty stick-on, re-usable bass drum mute which will fit any size kick drum & can also be used with a double pedal.

Additionally, it also features 2 x overhanging cymbal mutes and a hi-hat mute, plus an ‘inner disc’ that is used between the hihat cymbals.

Each pack also includes full fitting instructions.

Look out for the individual mute pads being sold separately….. Coming soon to playrecord.net

Products include bass drum pedals, standard and pro versions both with a single or double pedal. Also a large variety of stands including cymbal, snare and hi-hat stands all available in their top end heavy duty range down to the lightweight range.

Also now available are the Bigdog drum thrones, again, from the budget up to the luxury versions.

One of our favourite Bigdog products is the Bigdog Bass Drum Double Pedal (PRO).
This, in our opinion, is up there with the likes of the Iron Cobra double bass drum pedal and it features the cool unique Bigdog blue finish footplate. Besides the cool look and great quality, the Bigdog Bass Drum Double Pedal (PRO) is also very affordable in comparison to the likes of the Iron Cobra.

All the Bigdog hardware is now available to buy from playrecord.net, many of which with a special introductory price for a short period of time which can be viewed in the special offers section of our website.

All the accessories will be available in the upcoming weeks so keep coming back to see the new lines being added to our catalogue. To view all our Bigdog range please click here

So whilst your still in the modern-day mentality, taker some thought into what your going to need for those late night camp fire drinking sessions. We have recently taken on a new supplier of authentic hand-made African percussion. From small egg shakers, to some thumping full-size djembe’s, we now cater for all. So before you hike off into the country this summer check out our new ‘World Percussion’ in the Drums/Percussion category and I’m sure you’ll find something suitable for the camp-fire entertainment.

Happy Festival…’ing
