Don Mckenzie\'s creative, electrifying grooves and style contribute for that any artist with who he performs or record with, praises the sense of coolness and newness contained into his work. Don Mckenzie is the one who appears with many of the surprising and unexpected parts, creating an original, fresh and thrilling climate to the music at the same time.
Don Mckenzie was strongly impressed with Orion Cymbals and signed an International partnership contract with the brand because he believes that the originality of these instruments represents the originality of his own style.
Don met Jean-Philippe Borra and Marcos Tachikawa, respectively the Export Sales Manager and Artist Manager of Orion Cymbals during the International Music fair - Musikmesse 2006 in Frankfurt, Germany, in order to sign his contract.
Don Mckenzie has been using Orion Cymbals before this, since he received some models from the hands of the talentous Brazilian heavy metal drummer, Fernando Schaefer (also an Orion Cymbal\'s artist) during a show.
