TR Love

Check my (slighty geeky but I hope very playable) homage to classic Roland drum machines:

Mike Monday "TR Love" (Systematic)

This is a low quality mp3, if you want the whole shebang you can get it here from Beatport.

I wrote it for Marc Romboy at Systematic who asked me to do a track for his 5 Years Systematic anniversary release.

It's a very straightforward, no nonsense record that uses drum sounds from the Roland 505, 606, 707, 808 and 909. And before you ask no I'm afraid I don't have all these original machines, some of the drum sounds are samples...

(Oh and refreshingly there's no hint of any congas, bongos or ethnic vocals anywhere on the track)
