In early Mutemath shows, Darren would play this kit which can be seen in the photo. From around 2006 to early 2007, he only used the bass drum from this set and switched the toms out with Slingerland toms instead of the Rogers. Note that it might actually be a "champagne sparkle" rather than a "gold sparkle" Rogers kit as they both have similar finishes.
