Instrument Technician
From the early days of my drumming development, I've been fascinated by the intricate mechanics and inner workings of drum gear, and how various combinations of small adjustments can create wildly differing tones.
This interest, as well as educated guidance, led to hours of: disassembling and reassembling drums in college practice rooms; painstaking tuning on various parts of my first kit and endless online rabbit-holes into the nature of the instrument itself.
Years of this process combined into an in depth knowledge of drum anatomy.
Although drum's is my specialty, it is not the only instrument I have experience in. Combined with the years of music education and personal development, I have over a year's experience as a Repair Assistant for "PIRATE.COM", who run multiple rehearsal spaces internationally. My role solely focused on national repairs with a variety of other instruments, such as:
-
Guitar & Bass amps
-
PA Systems
-
Mixers
-
Pioneer DJ Equipment
-
Interfaces
-
Midi Keyboards
BreakBeat Music Repair
Your Personal Drum Tech
An independently ran music repair workshop, specialising in drums, percussion & hardware. It is also my first venture into freelance music repairs. Aiming to fill a gap in the market by offering professional, friendly and affordable care for drum gear that is as easily accessible as possible. Recently we have begun accepting repairs nationally via Courier, where a client can send smaller repairs/items to be serviced at our workshop, and then returned.
Although a repair workshop, BreakBeat is fast becoming known for it's hands on approach to drum services, offering meticulous cleaning, re-tensioning and tuning. The instrument is quite literally rebuilt from the ground up, with a watchful eye for any early signs of damage or wear and in the end, it's left feeling, looking and sounding, better than new.
