Soultone Cymbals

originally founded in 2003 by the legendary drummer, percussionist, and entrepreneur, iki levy, after struggling to address frustrations with the major cymbal manufacturers over quality issues. “i wanted to use the best products possible, and i had the opportunities, but i was not happy with anything those companies were producing – even with my product endorsements,” reports iki. “the blend of the metals we use is our own process that employs a balance of proper weight and tone properties. this creates the real difference between soultone cymbals and any other brand.” iki’s performances include work with thomas dolby, jann arden, midge ure, paula abdul, tracy chapman, donna summer and the now cult-hit, disney’s high school musical, as well as many others. his approach crosses over each style and genre of music when it comes to sound quality. originally, as the proprietor of the los angeles, ca drum specialty shop, the drum connection, he put his first soultone models on the showroom
