Workshop: TR-909 Talk & Sound - with Mark Verbos & Anderas Schneider // 11. Sept. - 7 pm - Free

Our next workshop will be something very special! We are delighted to present an evening with Mark Verbos. Mark will share his experiences, thoughts and opinions on the legendary TR-909. Of course, we will also hear the machine in action, together with a modular system from Verbos Electronics. Mark also uses this setup in his excellent live sets. Check out the video of his performance at SUPERBOOTH23 below!

Techno wouldn't be the same without the distinctive sound of the TR-909 – this rare machine is extremely sought-after, and if you find one, you'll pay a lot of money for it. That's why many have tried to copy the TR-909. One of the first to get it right was Jürgen Michaelis from Jomox. His Berlin-made Xbase-09 was an extremely successful example of a drum machine that could compete with the powerful sound of the 909. The Xbase-09 was not a clone, but inspired by the most important sounds of the 909 – the kick, snare and sample-based hi-hats. Andreas Schneider and Jürgen Michaelis sold the original Xbase to the Berlin techno scene and beyond – so not only is Mark Verbo's musical history linked to the TR-909, but also Andreas Schneider's career history.

Let's find out together what stories the two have to share and get ready for some great and wild grooves. See you at SchneidersLaden!
