My Planet mallets are for gong aficionados who want to dive into the realm of ‘touch’.
The four planet mallets are beautifully balanced and identical in every aspect apart from their texture. It leaves you fully appreciate how a gong’s sound changes according to the softness of the mallet that is making contact with it.
The two firmer mallets are ‘stubbies’. Their short shaft gives you much better control over how hard they strike (essential for firm mallets that have weight). And it lets you get really playful since it makes the mallets more mobile and nimble. Hold them by the handle, or for a more ‘exploratory’ tapping approach around the gong (overtones to be found!) hold just below the head.
SATURN (Soft) Rich lower tones.
MARS (Medium) Warm with enough firmness to raise the brighter tones as you strike harder.
VENUS (Firm/stubby) Plenty of presence and fastish attack. Bright yet keeps the richness.
PLUTO (Very Firm/stubby) Endlessly varying bright bell like tones. To be played lightly in moments of stillness. Reminds me of the universe.

Dense and bouncy for deeply sonorous tones, with very little effort (so it’s easy on the wrists).
Blossoms beautifully with increased stroke weight. Great for gradual swells and decrescendos or maintaining a low end drone whilst perhaps decorating it with a smaller firmer mallet in your other hand. Encourages a different approach to the lower end in terms of playfulness, rhythm and low overtones. DEEP ENERGY always goes in my bag!

The softest and friendliest mallets you can get. URSA MAJOR and URSA MINOR are the perfect grounding mallets for Sound Healing.
You can ease your audience into their session, then raise the Vach Choir with a firmer stroke, and guide them through realms of insight, empowerment and healing.
The cuddly fur is synthetic, not from a bear, chicken or even a fish. All Epic Mallets are vegan!
With no discernible contact sound whatsoever, they’re very forgiving to play. Both together makes not only a nicely contrasting pair, but are perhaps all you need for a gently healing sound.
