Latin Percussion Raw Series - Mike Dolbear

The LP Raw 16'' Street Can brings a fresh twist to percussion, offering loud, resonant tones perfect for stage performances. With adjustable legs and a sturdy design, it’s built for versatility. However, the sound may not fully replicate traditional drums, which could disappoint purists. While not every player will find it intuitive—especially those used to softer surfaces—the unique metallic sound it produces is undeniably engaging. This instrument adds a colorful flair to any setup, making it a fun addition for those looking to experiment. Overall, it stands out for its quality and creativity, though it may not suit every drummer’s taste.

LP Raw Series Percussion review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

A mixed bag for the LP Raw 16'' Street Can, showcasing some intriguing sounds, but overall, it's a tough sell. While the Street Cans deliver a deep, punchy tone ideal for street ensembles, their hefty price tag of £210 to £248 is hard to justify given their limited practical applications. The Trash Snare, despite its quirky appeal, falls flat with a lack of resonance and a somewhat dead sound, making it less than thrilling. The Potz offer some fun, yet they sound surprisingly similar to everyday kitchenware. Overall, while there's novelty to explore, musicians may find more value elsewhere.
