You might already have everything you need to make any acoustic drum set work for EDM and more.<\/p>\n<p>Try stacking a few broken cymbals on your ride and hit it whenever you hit the snare. It&#8217;s no longer a cymbal &#8211; you&#8217;ve transformed it into a clap! If you&#8217;re getting too much resonance, use gaffer tape to hold the cymbals together more tightly. In the words of Michael Schack, doing this will give you &#8220;the most nasty clap sound you&#8217;ve ever heard.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you still need to use your ride as a ride, put a small broken cymbal or splash on your floor tom. Use more of that trusty gaffer tape to hold it in place.<\/p>\n<p>This is all you need to get a trashy, industrial sound without samples or new gear. Give it a shot!<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Michael:<\/strong><br \/>\nMichael Schack is one of the world\u2019s most well known and energetic E-drummers as he continuously performs on famous festival stages, in clubs and concert venues, both solo and with Netsky Live.
