Guest fiznuthian Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 saw this video posted on another forum, in response to a video posted of a couple dudes making a 909 beat. thought it was awesome! i love his tunes and i've always heard Jeff Mills is amazing live but damn... the man is serious about techno. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKeVmmfeSPI&feature=related now i've never programmed the roland 909 so tell me, is he programming those drums on the fly like i think he is? edit: gotta say it makes me laugh seeing all those people jump around like loonies probably because i do the same when i go to shows :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest David R James Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 This is what he has been doing for years, Djing along side a 909, at one point he used a mc303 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tht tne Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 i couldn't sit through that... live drum-machine performances are so limited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fiznuthian Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 This is what he has been doing for years, Djing along side a 909, at one point he used a mc303 that's really cool, i assume most reserve their 909 for studio use rather than playing it out? it looks like he's doing really quick pattern edits while its rolling along.. and the synths that finally come in at 6:00 just kill!

chassis Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Im not going to watch the video but I just want to say Jeff Mills is the fucking man. I had one of his records before I knew watch techno was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there is any synths involved, it's probably just from records, i dunno not sure. Plastikman has/does performances with just 909 or 808, that's not so good IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkaholic Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 yeah jeff mills is great, really enjoyed that but i think that much of a 909 drum machine (or 808) would drive me mad, id like to see him to that but with different sounds or editing the sounds to make them less harsh (but thats also part of appeal) feel like listerning to liquid rooms now, haven' listened to it in a while.

cruising for burgers Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 i gotta be the douche, damn, this is garbage! it only takes watching some good dj scratching a vinyl or even tim exile making stupid live tunes to get to the conclusion that this "909 jam bullshit" doesn't have any value at all. sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MassfreeKid Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Hey guys, look at that retro 909! Pretty cool that he brings that monster on the stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Jan Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Still bummed out that the only time I had the chance to see him (at Dour this summer) he stopped his set after 20 minutes because of some moronic drunk Belgian throwing a plastic beer cup at him. Those 20 minutes were great though... Hope to see him again soon.Retro seems a bit misplaced for someone like Mills though, did he ever stop using that 909 in his livesets? Not sure, I'm not a huge follower :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
