How is Factory Metal used in music?
Factory Metal is an auxiliary add-on that is incorporated into an existing drum setup or percussion rig, to provide an additional effect sound. Over the past three years Factory Metal has been used in everything from movie sound tracks such as Robots & Stealth, all the way to Vegas Shows with Cirque Du Soliel and the Blue Man Group. In rock music, FMP has been out on the Warped Tour with the Street Drum Corp, with KoRn and the Family Values Tour, and traveled the world with Tommy Lee and Motley Crue. Factory Metal has also been embraced by jazz fusion musicians and can be found on many albums with top professionals such as Vinnie Colaiuta, Horacio “El Negro” Hernandez, Terry Bozzio and Giovanni Hidalgo, to name only a few.
