À propos de l?auteur
Chris Scott is an electronic music enthusiast whose passion for sonic innovation began in his teenage years tinkering with vintage synthesizers in a cluttered garage studio. With a meticulously curated collection of classic gear-including Roland TR-808 drum machines, Moog Minimoogs, and rare modular systems-he channels that love into his day-to-day work as a sought-after mixing and mastering engineer across the UK.
Chris has lent his golden ears to hundreds of indie releases, helping artists from bedroom producers to chart-toppers polish their tracks for global streaming dominance. When he's not behind the console, he's dissecting the latest in digital distribution and social promo tactics, empowering fellow creators to navigate the DIY music landscape.

The Beat That Shaped the World The History of the Roland TR-808 Drum Machine (Paperback)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, Etats-Unis
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In 1980, a quirky Japanese drum machine hit the scene-and the world hasn't stopped thumping since.Imagine a box of circuits, dismissed as a flop, that birthed the seismic boom of hip-hop's golden age, the hypnotic haze of acid house raves, and the trap anthems rattling stadiums today. The Roland TR-808 wasn't built for glory; it was forged in Ikutaro Kakehashi's Osaka workshop as an affordable rhythm sketchpad for broke songwriters. Priced at $1,195 and discontinued after just 12,000 units, its analog heart-tunable kicks that rattle your soul, claps like scattered applause, hi-hats flickering like distant stars-found its way into pawn shops and Bronx basements. There, it ignited revolutions.From Afrika Bambaataa's interstellar "Planet Rock" to Marvin Gaye's sultry "Sexual Healing," Quincy Jones's Thriller thunder, and Travis Scott's psychedelic "Sicko Mode," the 808 became the unsung co-writer of modern music. It powered Chicago warehouses where Frankie Knuckles spun house ecstasy, Detroit garages birthing techno gods like Juan Atkins, and Atlanta trap labs crafting bass quakes for Gucci Mane and Migos. A "failure" that democratized beats for Black and brown innovators shut out of ivory-tower studios, the 808 didn't just make sounds-it made history, shaking genres, cultures, and subwoofers from Lagos to Ibiza.Dive into this electrifying saga: the machine's improbable genesis, underground uprising, global conquest, iconic anthems, and enduring echo in 2025's AI-augmented beats. The Beat That Shaped the World is more than a biography-it's a love letter to rhythm's raw power, proving one humble box could remix the human heartbeat. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9798232793715
