What was the shuffle rate or individual drum settings (decay, tone)? But nicely presented on paper. Nice enough, but to say it teaches drum patterns!

Who would've thought an acid house track by Adonis can convey graphic resemblance to early computer data card, or to works by Josef Albers... Btw, although a drum machine, the TR-808 can produce bassline sequences; its analogue modular synthesis capabilities are fit for basslines as well Beautiful visuals!

These posters are beautiful, graphic tributes to some great 80's songs. They honour an iconic piece of music history, the Roland tr-808, and allow aspiring music-makers to introduce or re-introduce themselves to the lost art of simple rythm making, with tinny hand-claps and spacey cowbells.
