The 20 inch Wierbonski Dark Fusion Ride is a very versatile cymbal that has been completely re-crafted, re-hammered and reworked personally by hand to create a unique looking and sounding cymbal that is one of a kind. It is very responsive to stick types and playing styles. It features a defined stick definition over top of a complex, semi-dry medium dark wash and a strong, cutting medium pitched bell.
This is an excellent cymbal for Jazz Fusion as well as Funk, Reggae, Latin, Jazz or Experimental Rock! The price is $200. To get a total with shipping and to purchase Send me a message.

One of my favorite cymbal manufactures has released a new cousin to the PST line, the PST 8. Having been VERY impressed with their budget PST 5 line, this new 8 series looks very promising. Looks like the 5s but with added hand hammering and an oldschool paiste “reflector” finish. They do look pretty, don’t they!
The sound quality of the PST 5 line was already FAR superior to anything in it’s price range, so I’m anxious to hear the PST 8s. The large hammer marks are reminiscent of the old 3000 line.
Soon I will be releasing my own brand of cymbals for drum set. These are customized or “reworked” cymbals that I am re-hammering and other techniques. All is being done by hand personally by me. The idea came originally due to not being able to find that “perfect” cymbal. Don’t get me wrong, there are some great ones out there, but sometimes you just want something unique.
I have always been fascinated with how cymbals are created and how colorful they can sound. I’ve customized a few in the past, but now I actually have some better tools to work with so hopefully will have something to share soon.

The video above explains why you should.
On this beautiful Christmas Eve I am writing you to announce the release of a project that I am incredibly proud of, The Children of Mu – Sessions 2011.
The Children of Mu is a Fusion Improv project I put together with some of the best and most creative musicians in the area. Think electric period Miles Davis mixed with Faust and Sun Ra. I had A LOT of fun playing drums on this, and finally for those of you who know me most for my drumming have full 3 hours worth of it here. You can click the image on the left to download the MP3 version for free or donate if you like, or you can get the flac or just about any other file version in my brand new DOWNLOAD STORE and see the complete session notes and credits.
I just thought I’d share this movie that I found on this is a great youtube channel. Full length UFO documentaries, conspiracy theories, press meetings and other awesome stuff that is UFO related. Check out UFO TV
Music video for Lavender Tarantula off of my latest album “Coruja” I hope you enjoy it. Download the full album for free herehttp://www.jamendo.com/en/album/95031 or buy it on Amazon.
Made with iMovie 3 on my Apple Power Macintosh G4 using public domain footage from Archive.org and my flip video camera. Additional video camera work by Cristiane Nunes Silva Wierbonski.
This was just recorded last Sunday 8.20.11 at my home studio. This is a Children of Mu rendition of my composition “22nd Ave S” which was first released on Coruja. This version features me on Drums, Rex Shepherd on Guitar, Jeremy Powell on Sax, and K Paul Boyev on Bass. This is a stripped down Mu lineup, but I think that it came out really well.
