Traps Acoustic Drum Kit

The story began several years ago. Alchemy, primarily a design and manufacturing company located in Dorset, UK, began to invest heavily in the production of a series of plastic injection moulds to make drum parts for another company. In 2004 when the production of these kits was moved to the Far East, Alchemy decided to start manufacturing their own drums. With Alchemy's design and production expertise, mould-making knowledge and a huge machining facility, the Traps drum concept was born. The name Traps was derived from the shortening of the word 'contraptions', which was a term once universally used for drums.

The main idea was to design a set of drums that had all of the advantages of portable drum sets but eliminated any weaknesses. Contrary to public belief drummers are actually rather conservative people and don’t like change. So, drawing on their experience of what had gone before, the team decided that the Traps kit should be as conventional as possible.

Alchemy's other business includes designing and manufacturing parts for prestigious customers such as Porsche, Mercedes and Aston Martin so quality was at the fore when commissioning parts to build this kit.

Overall, the Traps drum set has been manufactured with a concentration on quality at an affordable price by a company that knows what it’s doing. A great deal of time, skill and money has been invested in this drum kit. We think you will find that the quality of the Traps range of products speaks for itself
