   Hello my name is Gabriel Cruz

   I was wondering if you had any endorsement deals available, and what
   were the requirements.

   I have around 4 thousand followers in berklee collage of music
   alone, in a place where iv been for only 2 semesters, people that want
   me to do clinics, and even teach them. And all this not counting the
   groups of music i represent now. Im also about to become endorsed by
   los foxy drum sticks because of the same reason. Iv only been in the
   U.S. 10 months and from 0 – 4 thousand followers with just my playing.
   I also do clinics in puerto rico, and i play around with around 3
   different artist in PR. Emmelis escalera an up and coming latin artist
   asked me to record on her album and tour with her on the summer as did
   the Famed Fernando Velu a DJ in puerto rico that is changing the
   Techno scene in PR. Im auditioning for Cique du Soleil in a month and
   am also working out a tour with the famous Puerto Rican Rapper
   Archangel. My professors are well known as well, people like Mike
   Mangini, Ricardo Monzon, Skip Hadden and next semester Dave Discenso.
   I even played as Hilary Clintons official band when she campaigned in
   PR. I have played in 3 live music plays with over 3 thousand each
   people. I have also been called “the new approach” to latin drumming.
   I could demonstrate my abilities personally of given the chance.
   Although i have a few non recent videos in the link i posted.

   I chose your company because it projected individual care for their
   artist. Actual interest and dedication. I also learned about your company after
   reviewing the modern drummer website and basically going one by one in
   the companies and choosing the one that i thought would be right for
   me, one that we could both benefit from. I know this can be a mutual
   opportunity, and i think i am fit to give you the promotion at a high
   level of professionalism, i would not only wear your name as my
   banner but really try and make it a success for us. I dont see it as,
   you receive something then i receive, we would be a team in which i
   would want both of us to grow and become even more successful.

   On another note. I am also a film scorer, and in that sense i am
   pretty well known for my age. I am currently working on a multimillion
   dollar film called Atico , no small stuff. So even though i am on the
   way of becoming a well known artist in the drums i am pretty well
   known as a film scorer already. I also worked for the Creator of the
   tv show Friends, Kevin Bright. So my name will be in the spot light a
   lot. and when people research me they would find your name their too.

   Im known by my artist name : Sky Cruz

   More info:

   I did a Sky Cruz ( my artist name ) recital in which the turn out
   was around 3900 people show. Im about to create a official fan page
   now but i only try and keep my friends in my Facebook page. In the
   link before you will see videos and pictures of my music shows, i also
   have pictures when i played for people like Hilary Clinton Etc… I
   have to get back to you on the specific dates as i still dont know
   them my self and i know our first show is in “El boricua, july 9th
   then the 10th in “Taller C” after that we have gigs in different clubs
   2 times a week every week till august 28 ( the last tour date ). We
   also have 3 weeks of studio sessions with Emmelis Escalera startiting
   may 18th and 2 weeks of recording sessions with Fernando Velu starting
   hune 19th and he is still working out a tour for next summer. Im also
   working out a deal with Paco Ramos the manager of the rapper Archangel
   to see if i go on tour with them in the spring. 2011. I also have 3
   clinics, in San antonio on october 29, in Thanks giving week and in
   christmas break in Casa Cuba on Dic 20th.

   I have not done instructional videos although i had around 5 students
   back in puerto rico before i moved to the USA. I would have no problem
   teaching though, im a well rounded musician, i can read music, charts,
   I work on rudiments, and actual technique, not just the gigging part
   of drums.

   P.S. Here is a video of the artisit im touring with doing radio
   appearances etc.
   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LS-WojjUps&feature=related

   In the mist of all this ill also be scoring for the film Atico. From
   may 8th to june 8th. the release date is still being decided.

   I will send you reference from the director if you would like.

   Thank You

4. Ben Clarke May 23, 2010 at 9:04 am

   Dear Sir or Madam,

   Thank you for taking the time to review my mail. Over the past eight
   months my drumming career has taken a considerable step forward, and I
   am currently looking to form relationships with companies who possess
   the experience and skills required to maintain and increase this
   progress.

   Obviously a factor in my desire to build these relationships is the
   necessity to curb some of the incremental costs that have rapidly
   increased along with my work load. However, my main interest is the
   opportunity to benefit from the advice, support and expertise of
   industry professionals such as yourselves, as I embark upon these
   exciting new challenges.

   Perhaps you could you send me an e-mail address to which I could forward
   a press pack? Amongst working with many other artists, I am currently
   the drummer for the Meteor award-winning band Amasis. With Amasis I will
   be playing numerous dates around Ireland and the UK over 2010, including
   summer festivals such as Oxygen and a Mainstage slot at the Milk
   Festival with Alexandra Burke. If you wish to know more about the Bands’
   tour schedule, press history and future / previous releases, I can put
   the acts’ management in touch with you?

   Thank you for taking the time to read this mail.

   Yours sincerely,
   Ben Clarke.

6. Andrew Pottruff August 6, 2010 at 1:23 pm

   To whom it may concern,
   I am playing with a band that is fairly large in Ontario, and is continuing to grow.
   The band’s name is In Ambush, and can be found at http://www.inambush.com, http://www.myspace.com/inambush. Inambush is also endorsed by Traynor amps, Snap Jack Cables, and Knucklehead Strings. In Ambush, formerly named “Grindstone.”
   In Ambush is in the process of recording their second studio album, soon to be released. The first album, “Seeds of Paranoia” was a massive hit, and sold over 1,000 copies. Since then, In Ambush has continued to grow and has multiple show dates booked in the upcoming months in front of multiple A & R representatives.
   I was wondering if we could perhaps look into a potential endorsement with Alchemy? Please email me back and let me know either way.
   Thank you.
7. David Nguyen August 10, 2010 at 8:27 pm

   Dear Alchemy Co,

   I am very most interested in your company through other artists that you have sponsored. My name is David Nguyen and I have an unfailing
   passion for drums. I live, eat and breath drums. I cant imagine what I would be like if I didnt play drums. I am 18 and my hometown is Tampa, Florida..U.S. I am currently an independent drummer but had many offers to join in bands. I started late and am not gonna lie but been only playing for a year, I wish had been drumming from a young age. But anyway my skills, ability and talent can be so easily compared to a 4-6 years drummer. I learn so easily and quick its just so natural to me. I can drum to any genre of music. Other drummers are shocked and amazed by my style of playing, especially when I am jamming for people in Guitar Center (Music Center) and have been advised to join in the Guitar Center – Drum Off 2010 and most likely will. The reason I e-mailed you this is that any type of deal or sponsorship from you guys would be a blessing and mad cool and will have a jump start on my drumming career. I am a one of kind drummer and bring uniqueness when I play. But mostly inspiring others too. I have attached a photo of myself and if anything else is needed please tell me. I hope to contribute to Alchemy Cymbals and get a response from you guys!

   Quick question which model ride does matt from Mudvayne play I can’t find it anywhere and love its sound. Thanks
9. Parker Mullinix August 25, 2010 at 1:03 am

   Hey,
   I’m a drummer in a band and I love the sound of your cymbals! I was wondering If I could get some of your cymbals by getting sponsored! We are really low on money but we love play music and hope to get far with it. We have a demo on our myspace but it does not really show all my fills in the song because it was a bad recording.
   Thanks so much!
   I really hope to hear back from you!

12. Jonathan Ortiz May 28, 2011 at 2:08 am

    Greetings friend,
    My name is Jonathan Ortiz, I’m a 26 year old drummer currently based in San Juan, Puerto Rico. I am DEEPLY interested in Alchemy Cymbals and am seeking an endorsement/musician’s deal with your company. My desire is to represent Alchemy here in Puerto Rico, throughout the Caribbean, and anywhere else the music may take me.

    I began my drumming career in 2001. Over the last 10 years I’ve quickly become one of the most influential local drummers locally, and have had the opportunity to lend my talents to several bands and ensembles of all styles and genres. In 2004, I helped form Puerto Rico’s premiere Prog-Metal act, Errant Society. Blending the aggressive drumming style of thrash-metal with odd-time progressive concepts, I became a key player in crafting the signature sound and presence that allowed us to open for Symphony X in May 2007. Moving forward, I began formally studying music at the InterAmerican University of Puerto Rico whilst joining local groups Soteria and After Omega. My contribution to these groups, combined with an infectious/energetic stage presence, a kind personality, a thirst for knowledge, and an urge to share my passion, opened the door for a teaching position at the church, Cristo Reina. This proved to be one of the most rewarding times of my career as I was able to influence the young drummers of the local rock/metal scene of today, who even at this present time view me as their mentor.

    I decided to take a step towards the North and headed to Hartford, CT. Before long I became the house drummer for Sully’s Pub and Black Eyed Sally’s. It was here that I was being seen 3 nights a week every week, over the course of two and a half years. Providing the backbone for guitarist Pete Schieps (and occasionally joined by Big Al Williams), we played everything from Classic Rock, Jazz Standards, Reggae, House, Dub-Step, Drum ‘n Bass, Folk, Ethnic, Psychedelic Rock, Latin, Bossa Nova, Samba, and Improv Jams to hundreds if not thousands of people every month. At this time I also did session work as the drummer for hard rock/metal band, The Shape (later known as Impuria).

    Personal reasons cited my return to Puerto Rico and provided me the opportunity to rejoin my previous bandmates from After Omega. We sought to branch out further in rock, to the realm of Melodic Death Metal with our group, Bastard Chain and have since signed with AlteRock Music. Our debut EP “HELLSPAWNED,” is presently being sold in North America, South America, Europe, the Caribbean, and Japan. The reputation we gained from our present and previous endeavors have given us the chance to play with noted local rock acts Pit Fight Demolition, Zafakon, Alas Negras, and The Mirage Theory. Recently we opened for german thrash metal legends, Destruction, during their North American Reckoning tour. We are currently working on our second EP and first full length album under our new name, and are scheduled to open for Brujeria later this summer as well as a Caribbean/East Coast US tour.

    My current cymbal setup consists of the following (similar to your artist, Matt McDonough):
    6″, 8″, 10″, and 12″ Splashes
    13″ and 15″ Hi Hats
    12″, 14″, 16″, and 18″ China’s
    14″, 16″, 18″ 19″ Crashes
    20″ and 21″ Rides
    7″ Bell

    I am certain that with your endorsement, I can promote and elevate your sales here in the Caribbean in a phenomenal way. I want to be THE representative for Alchemy Cymbals in this region of the globe, and with your blessing, I hope to do so. I wish to dedicate time and effort into giving back and paying forward the excellent quality and service that your cymbals have provided for me in the past. Please check me out at the following links:

    Hi, I’m Valentz from Italy. I play drum for 10 years and I’m really interested into your cymbals because I like them a lot because I tryed them to my shopkeeper. I don’t have any endorsement and I hope you could be interested in me.

    Hello. My name is Trevor Whitmire. I recently borrowed my friend’s TRX ALT crash cymbals, and pretty much became obsessed. I absolutely love TRX cymbals. I love the full sound they produce, and the absolutely unparalleled balance they present. Reasons to endorse/sponsor/help me out? I have been a “musician” for a little over 5 years, and in that time I have gained much respect for my ability to play drums, and I am also endorsed by DarkHorse Percussion. I have been playing drums for a little over 6 years, and I have been complimented frequently by seasoned drummers, and professional musicians for my progression in the amount of time I have played. The main reason I think it would be a gain for TRX, is because I can acquire the company a lot of promotion. I am in a band, and I do solo work, and studio work for various other bands and musicians. The band I play drums in is a Christian metal band called Save the Last. They have already had a lot of success in the local scene, and are about to start branching out on tours. I would absolutely love for TRX to help me out, and I KNOW that I can help add more recognition and respect to your already outstanding reputation as a company. Please E-mail me at t_whitmire@hotmail.com if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you very much!

    I’m in a band called Marble Avenue, we’re a Pop Rock band with an EP out.
    We really want to grow up as a band and we’re going to try to get out of Portugal as soon as the album is out (2013).
    My drumming CV is nothing really big, I made a 11 gig tour with my band (3 weeks tour) in Portugal, I played with Prima Donna live during their 2011 European Tour here in Portugal.
    We’re growing more and more, but we’re not very big. But I thought I might try to get endorsed by your fantastic cymbals and start to spread the word doing covers on youtube with them and playing live!

    I heard some samples of your cymbals model, and i was so amused that i
    decided immediately to drop you a line to become one of your endorser, if
    you
    like.

    Hope you’ll consider my request.

    Regards

    Francesco Mirabelli
