Dream Cymbals – Dark Matter Bliss and Vintage Bliss

Canadian company Dream introduced the drumming world to its dry, raw, twice-torched Dark Matter cymbals in 2010, and they’ve remained top-sellers ever since. Meanwhile, the Bliss series—one of Dream’s original lines—continues to motor on, providing players with warm, dark, and complex tones for all applications. New for 2021, the Dark Matter Bliss series merges the two series into one for a more nuanced, yet dry flavor.

We received 17", 18", and 19" Dark Matter Bliss Paper Thin crashes, 20" and 22" Dark Matter Bliss Crash/Rides, and two mammoth 24" rides—a Dark Matter Bliss and a thinner Dark Matter Vintage Bliss. They all feature the Dark Matter’s signature scorched finish on top and bottom, and subtle, soft lathing.
