Emperor Renaissance Series
The Remo Emperor Renaissance is the newly introduced industry standard for tympani and other percussion instruments across the world, in live or studio applications. Remo use modern technologies to create a textured surface that enhances performance when using sticks, brushes and mallets. The material is constructed in a two part process, first treated the film surface with an ultra-thin coated, then curing it in a specially designed environment. These heads have a very tonally warm sound that's ideal for melodic expression and affords a wide, more balanced sound spectrum for tympani, snares, toms and bass drums in any drumming application.
About Remo
After World War II, the founder of Remo Inc., Remo D. Belli, was experimenting with PET film as a new material choice for drum heads. At the time, the idea was dismissed by many drummers because they preferred the sound of calfskin heads which dominated the market at that point. There were, however, some issues with the calfskin heads, such as their need for regular tuning, so Remo Belli went about solving these problems and creating a convenient solution for drummers. Using Mylar, a synthetic polyester film for drum heads, Belli was able to copy the look of a calfskin head, with a white and opaque look. Later developments of these drum heads included clear heads, two-ply heads, and simulated natural heads (Fiberskyn) which are still very popular amongst many modern drummers. Remo D. Belli died in April 2016, however, the company continue to lead the way in the drumhead manufacturing industry, supplying heads to a range of drum manufacturers including Pearl, Yamaha, Mapex, DW Drums, and many more.
