This ADpak gives you a veritable smorgasbord of cymbal options, from piercing splash and china cymbals, to crisp, washy crashes, distinctive rides, and one-of-a-kind items.
Paiste 602 Modern Essentials & 2002 cymbals
The lush warmth of Paiste
The Modern Heavy ADpak features peak Paiste craftsmanship from the classic 2002 series and 602 Modern Essentials. These cymbals blend the legendary warmth and clarity of the original 602 series with a modern, expressive touch.
They deliver a perfect balance of crisp articulation, rich musicality, and dynamic versatility. Handcrafted from Paiste’s signature B20 bronze, the cymbals offer shimmering highs, warm lows, and a smooth, complex wash. Pure, responsive, and beautifully nuanced, Paiste redefine cymbal excellence.
Paiste PSTX 14” Flanger Stack
A battle scarred special
The cymbal selection includes a one-of-a-kind Paiste flanger stack, complete with battle scars from the previous owner Eloy Casagrande’s explosive playing style.
It has resided at Studio Gröndahl since Casagrande recorded Sepultura’s “Machine Messiah”, using the very same kit featured in this ADpak.
Recorded with a master of the craft
The Modern Heavy ADpak was captured together with David Castillo, renowned worldwide for his work with prestigious bands such as Opeth, Whitechapel, Katatonia, Carcass, Dark Tranqullity, Leprous, Soen, Soilwork, Candlemass, Bloodbath and many more.
Castillo takes a meticulous approach to production, fine tuning and refining even the slightest details in order to serve the composition correctly. His vision and passion allow him to take any challenge to the next level.
