I am so pleased this film was treated with the integrity and production value such an iconic invention deserves. my hope is that is spawns a movement of documentaries focused on other seminal electronic instruments and their legacy like the Prophet 5, the MPC, the controversial DX-7, or the sacred Fairlight. It's a ripe time in history for it.
"It had its own groove" "you can't recreate that groove" bla bla bla... Of course you fucking can. It is not the groove of the 808 that was special, it was the SOUND!
YoYo .Kidz I didn't want to believe for myself, but then lately I worked with a friend who is really good with his classic MPC. Had to admit. It freaking grooves like hell
YoYo .Kidz Not sure if you have played with a TR808 long enough, due to the analog circuitry (randomness and inefficiency), TR808 has its own groove especially if things get busy ... if you use the internal sequencer of TR808 to program, say a kick drum, even a straight 1/4 notes will sound differently. Especially in a full pattern with a few different instruments, one may notice the length, dynamics and sound quality of each instrument are not the same. One instrument sound will interfere with another by drawing more or less current & voltage in the analog circuit, some strange swing feels or groove will eventually be created. This is something not achievable by computer or newer (more efficient and effective) equipment.
Happy birthday John aka MC GLOBE! You don't get enough credit for the classics you pioneered! Love you and wish you the best always! You are the True Legend and innovator! Blessings always! Mad love from the Chi to the BX!
Its just so weird, most of hiphops bass and drums come from manipulated 808 samples. This one machine spawned the most popular music genre of today and its samples are used by every producer.
From Roland's own blog : One of the first available units was picked up by the hugely innovative Yellow Magic Orchestra who would use the 808 in a live performance in December of 1980, while Australian producer Mark Moffatt has been officially recognized as the first to put the 808 on record with The Monitors’ 1981 track ‘Nobody Told Me’
***** Egyptian Lover is a Legendary 808 producer and he deserve to be in Pharell position on this film. Pharell hasn't rocked on an 808, maybe 808 samples. No current producer's face should be on this project, period. Pharell could be the interviewer but not the interviewee.
Markus Arike having a 808 or access to one and making most of your music on one is two different things. If I made a movie like this, I would keep it 100 and put artist that "truly" represent the history.
Markus Arike "The Neptunes (Pharrell Willaims and Chad Hugo) who are credited with contributing the sound for many successful hip hop, R&B and pop artists in the late-1990s and 2000s." THANK YOU for making my point. The 808 was doing it's thang in the 80's, not late 90's and 2000's, only super duper funky fresh producers from the Golden Era should be featured in this film. PERIOD.... Machines "like" the 808 doesn't cut it.
friendofCHAKA I suppose they could fit the whole circuit board on an integrated circuit, but Roland doesn't seem to be interested in that. Roland produced analog drum machines and synths during a time when digital was virtually cost prohibitive, the inverse is true today.
Atlantic Records is making it impossible to stream/download this movie online. Will we ever be able to watch this movie legitimately, or will I have to just have to pirate it from somewhere? Gt it together Atlantic Records, if there is a demand for a product you have, then just put it out here for consumption, you goons!
+k stewart for f sake... goldie, david guetta, felix da housecat, diplo, etc are dj's aswell they show in the credits eventually they say 'and many more' so please, stop beeing ignorant www.residentadvisor.net/dj/2manydjs
+k stewart I guess basic education is rare these days... You're a sort of reverse atheist, trying to deny something exist while the evidence is right before you. Guess what, it's the internet. I can adress whoever I want, especially when it's on youtube... suprise suprise! I'll be waiting here for you, knock on the door twice please And keep believing what you want, if only I could see your face when you're watching this documentary and see the Dewaele brothers (AKA 2manydjs) beeing interviewed :D Greetings from Europe
George Munoz Yes, why is that such a dumb question? I know that obviously the sounds come from the 808, but the exact beats as strung together in the trailer sound familiar, like I've heard them actually in a song.
I've been sentient since the invention of the 808 and it's very rare that I've ever heard actual music being assisted by this technology. By "actual music", I mean formal structure. Most of you will not know what I'm talking about. Google "music structure bridge" and be educated. Rappin over a beat aint music bit$hes.

With that line-up, it promises to be the definitive documentary on this classic device

Definitely a movie for old heads anybody born in the 90's and past that won't remember a time before 808
Julian Worrell although the sound still dominates most music
+Julian Worrell jajajajaja the new machines and producer have the 808 sound sampled
David '808' Guetta. Yeah.
looks & sounds good...
Can't wait.
"It had its own groove" "you can't recreate that groove" bla bla bla...
Of course you fucking can. It is not the groove of the 808 that was special, it was the SOUND!
Werner Zimmermann
That doesn't make sense, during playback, only when recording.
Bla bla MY CHEAP CRAP IS THE SAME BECAUSE I CAN'T DO BETTER bla bla... 808 is 808, other things are other things. Deal with it.
Werner Zimmermann ruclips.net/video/PUKks41yiss/видео.html I explain the myth and fact on swing and quantize of the MPC vs software in this video

Hope they gave Lex Luger, 808 Mafia, Metro Boomin, or Mike Will a chance to be in this
ThatGuyTy no

Hyped for new order
Exciting!!
i love 808s songs
bad man goldie !!!!
Kanye be like: "I had made a whole album wit 808's and my name still aint in this?!?!?!?"
He did not. He used samples. Not the same thing.
the creators of this show would drop dead at the chance to get Kanye on this. what makes you think they wouldnt want kanye?
@@carstarsarstenstesenn Arthur Baker is laughing about Kanye
@@SPAZZOID100 I know its been 6 years, but 808's and heartbreak has very very little samples

Llama samples not the same.
TR-808 changed everything
I wish I had this drum machine!!! :
)
nemisysone buy one
why? your phone can run circles around it
TR 808 is coming... bright and early in the morning....
Dope!!
when is the movie out?

Glad to see Pretty Tony in this
Second Part 303 and Third Part 909 :-) and WTF Guetta!!!!
guetta was a real dj in the 80's and the early 90's before his shit blew up. he's very familiar with the machine ( and he's french ). don't be hatin
Gino Gardiola he was only a teen in '80 and did'nt play 808... may be he never done... only commercial message for the newbies
"Well I know y'all wanted that 8-0-8..." - Outkast
Hi everyone! I'm not an apple user, is there another way to watch it ?
Also looking forward to the sequel.
909?
cool stuff:)
Glad they got Richie up in there.
Got an 808 this and an 808 that...
Bassheads will know...
+Tyler Cameron Or Jesse Pinkman fans
Haila Jadoo!

Mr. Baker will you be on the panel at LA screening of 808? Big fan of your work sir.
SALUTE!!!!!

ty
Where can you view this. I cannot find it 😳 anywhere 😤😤😤😤?
David Guetta, Lady GaGa???
Who's next, Selena Gonez, and Miley Cyrus???
WTF...
Sell out pop move for the current generation. Honestly, Pharrell does not belong here either.

Markus Arike it's obvious you are a young person. Your Golden Age history is way off, but ok. Whatever. Your Idol doesn't belong, sorry. Peace.
yo quiero ver este documental entero !!!
David Guetta ?
SickraveTv what with all the tunes he has made with 808's in and all... yeahhhhhh
Agree...no Guetta and Diplo please.
SickraveTv I dont think so.
I know man. I know.
SickraveTv Able ... like 90% of people ... BUT NOT THE "most" ABLE NO WAY!
classic
They should make a documentary on how Roland failed to capitalize on its drum machines and synthesizers from the past.
friendofCHAKA Yeah, and call it, 'Where's The Jupiter 8, Assholes?'
Roland corp never checked ebay prices of their vintage synths apparently.
Would not be cost effective.

Brian De Bont when they were naming the people that used 808s they wrote *too many djs* because it was too many to name.

Greetings from Europe
808s on the market today go for $2,000 plus. I'm still waiting for the chance to cop one.
fhoplist $4,000
Fuck the 808 it's all about the CR78 that shits poppin'
H4NDCRAFTED did not make the same impact.
Sound Snare from the track Afrika Baambaataa - Planet Rock Is it refers to the 808 drum ?
808 is the "special sauce"...
Where can I watch this documentary?
Prime Video
Is Chuck D in this? I didn't see his name... Or KRS-1.
What song/songs are sampled from for the background music in the trailer?
Eptiger really?
George Munoz Yes, why is that such a dumb question? I know that obviously the sounds come from the 808, but the exact beats as strung together in the trailer sound familiar, like I've heard them actually in a song.
George Munoz Nevermind, it's Planet Rock =P
Has this movie become vapor ? HYPE HYPE HYPE :-(
I just noticed it on niter, so I don't think so. Maybe it was a limited release when it was in theaters?
No 808 mafia? Is the new use of this machine sound
Pharrel WTF!! Where the fuck is Egyptian Lover??
Juan Atkins had better be in this, too.
Egyptian lover baby!
Paradigm Subby...;-)
Egyptian Lover??
cool
shoura chabalo & bentil
Arthur baker why not??bomboklaat
If Kanye isn't in this.............
No thanx
No worries, he'll jump up on stage, rip the microphone from some girl etc
no thanks!!! after his "graduation" there is no more kanye imo!.
Larc Tald mark bell just recently passed away
Kanye uses samples. Not a real 808. And he has zero talent.
WTF... where is Egyptian Lover, "the king of 808"? He should have been the first name on the list!
I finally watched it, but it wasn't what I expected.
They could do that much better, especially for iconic device like TR-808..
Why did not Roland revive this classic machine! All they gave us recently was the plastic-y TR-8..
Michael Björk it's fine
