“When Roland discontinued the 808 and 909 to come out with the 707 and 505, they tried to come out with a more true drum sound, but the whole beauty of Roland was that they had drum sounds which were different from everybody else's.
- Juan Atkins
Few instruments have shaped the rhythm of electronic music as decisively as the TR-909. Introduced by Roland in 1983, it paired analog drum voices with sampled hi-hats and cymbals, giving it a character unlike any drum machine before it.
Its punchy kick, crisp hats and bright cymbals became a foundation of house and techno, and remain among the most recognizable kits in dance music.
