Book excerpt: As the musical styles of the 1970s moved from Prog Rock to Disco, to Punk and New Wave, there were early signs that drummers were tiring of the same old sounds of acoustic drums, and looking for something a bit different to come along. By the late 1970s, the wait was over. Soon the sound of the Pollard Syndrums - the distinctive "Peow Peow!" sound began to be heard on tracks from the likes of Rose Royce, Anita Ward, and The Cars, and a host of drummers added the Syndrums set into their acoustic kit set-up.In England, electronics engineer Dave Simmons was working on his own electronic drum module designs, and with help from drummer Richard Burgess (of Landscape) developed what became the Simmons Drum Synthesizer (SDS) V kit, released at the end of 1980. By the end of 1981, these distinctive hexagonal-shaped drums began to be heard on chart records, and were now seen on Top Of The Pops and other European TV music shows. The Electronic Drum Kit (EDK) had truly arrived.Electronic Drumfax features the electronic drum kits, modules, pads and accessories manufactured worldwide on five continents (USA, UK, Europe, Japan, and even Australia), taking the reader from 1973 and all the way through to the end of 1989 - the successes, the failures, and the totally obscure! Featuring over 200 electronic drum systems, over nearly 200 pages and in full colour.

Download or read book Gear Acquisition Syndrome written by Jan-Peter Herbst and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gear Acquisition Syndrome, also known as GAS, is commonly understood as the musicians unrelenting urge to buy and own instruments and equipment as an anticipated catalyst of creative energy and bringer of happiness. For many musicians, it involves the unavoidable compulsion to spend money one does not have on gear perhaps not even needed. The urge is directed by the belief that acquiring another instrument will make one a better player. This book pioneers research into the complex phenomenon named GAS from a variety of disciplines, including popular music studies and music technology, cultural and leisure studies, consumption research, sociology, psychology and psychiatry. The newly created theoretical framework and empirical studies of online communities and offline music stores allow the study to consider musical, social and personal motives, which influence the way musicians think about and deal with equipment. As is shown, GAS encompasses a variety of practices and psychological processes. In an often life-long endeavour, upgrading the rig is accompanied by musical learning processes in popular music.
