The Benefits of Natural Skin Heads

For thousands of years, natural skin heads have been the standard for percussion instruments. Prized for their rich, dynamic sound and organic feel, these heads are crafted from rawhide harvested from animals. Their composition includes key natural components like collagen, elastin, and lipids:

  • Collagen and elastin are proteins that contribute to the skin’s strength, flexibility, and resilience.

  • Lipids (fats) enhance moisture resistance, improving the skin’s durability and tonal quality.

Together, these natural materials work in harmony to produce a highly responsive sound with exceptional tonal richness. This makes natural skin heads ideal for both live performances and studio recordings.

Whether you’re performing in a high-energy setting or capturing that perfect studio tone, natural skin heads consistently deliver that warm, organic sound that percussionists love.
