Program Your 808

You probably remember the first round of these prints: Afrika Bambaataa, Cybotron, A Guy Called Gerald and Adonis. Four classic beats and how you'd program them on the Roland TR-808 - that was the basic idea behind Rob Ricketts‘ poster series. On March 1st, the Birmingham-based designer announced eight new designs that will all be available shortly for £12.00 each. Here's a look at them:
