Perfect tone starts here.
Our mission
Tandem Drums started with a simple belief: great sounding drums make great songs. You can put in the hours and master your chops, but if the drums don’t sound right, neither will the music.
Whether you're a drummer or producer, perfect drum tone shouldn’t be a mystery. Tandem products are designed so tone just happens, letting artists focus on creativity, not rigging up DIY fixes. When your gear gets out of the way, the music hits different.
Rooted in California, we create purpose-built tools that fuse modern engineering with time-tested tradition. For us, it's not about reinventing old ideas—it's about perfecting them. Every drummer brings something different to the table. Our mission is to help you sound perfect.

Let customers speak for us
from 966 reviewsThe towels are awesome in the studio for the acoustic drum kit that I have set up. I like the fact that you can roll these up a little bit or have them cover the entire drum, which gives these a lot of versatility. Highly recommend these as well as the drops!!!!
Not a lot to say except the product works as advertised, and I'm satisfied.
Makes a amazing drum sound . Helps get an overall great sounding mix
Six piece new DW set sounded amazing with stock skins; except floor tom, not even close; 200g pod not only fixed it but makes it sound perfect, no resonance at all! Put a 60g on the nickel plated DW brass snare to another perfect tight punchy sharp sound. Always wondered if I could get the perfect sounding set, I got it with just 2 pods! (Bass drum has the 2-piece DW pillow). 5 out of 5 stars 👌
Gives the drums a nice sound!
Just bought a second set so I have more options to get the sound I’m looking for especially when I’m playing in small low ceiling venues. They do the job.
I do a lot of recording. My kit is an old Ludwig kit from the 1960s. The drum drops really help reign in the ringing that I was experiencing but at the same time they let the drums ring out naturally. This is a great solution for natural sounding drums without excessive ringing.
Great product!
Drops make a huge difference. The village idiots even says that they are simply attracted and gives a boner-riffic sound. I put them on all of my heads so every hit is lacking the annoying resilience. Think I will have to check out their "Towel" just because.
The concept is good, simple and effective. Interestingly many comments I read seemed to suggest they didn’t “dampen “ enough. I would say just the opposite. I found the 40 and 60 grams most useful. The 120 was good for my FT, I really felt the 200g was like putting your wallet on the drum, it takes up a lot of room, so for me that’s the least useful. I intend to pick up some more 40g and 60g drops and double up. Overall, very happy with them.
Fire!
I'm a band leader who also runs sound/records and that was my reason for purchasing the Drops. They've already come in handy on 2 gigs so I'd say they are worthwhile to have -- even if you're not a drummer -- if you are running sound. Solves some easy issues.
These are great!
Worked very nicely in giving the correct amount of damping and nice to be able to play around with different weights
I thought they worked great! Once I was done experimenting where I should place them, the sound was just what I was looking for. They were perfect for my snare!
