    This is actually a deleted scene from the Matrix, when right after Morpheus showed Neo the hellscape the real world has become in the white room, he squats in front of a TR-909 and tells Neo that he doesn't only know kung fu

      @@theoracle7463 Practically nothing works seamlessly with a daw. The best experience I’ve had were with Bitwig and Korg’s midi implementation (Monologue). With that I could literally make it change patch for each note without a hiccup. I haven’t done research but have you looked into a separate midi clock / din sync converter?
      Oh come to find out that Roland used 24 pulse per quarter note and Korg used 48 I wonder if Korg still has higher clock resolution…
      Elektron does it’s own thing and while I got it to work and the Digitakt is my favorite device of all time, it wasn’t in the way I thought it should be, and I spent liters of blood piss and tears f$cking around with that when I just wanted to make music when I turn my machines on. So now I’m basically dateless with the Daw being a glorified multi track recorder 😬

    Holy shit, this is incredible. I knew that a really skilled artist could use a drum machine as an instrument for live performance (obviously), but I didn't realize that just a 909 by itself could do this live and on the fly. Jeff Mills is talented as fuck (and not just as a DJ or a producer). He's playing a 909 like a classical pianist performing on a Bosendorfer concert grand.

    Proper DETROIT Techno . I do miss those nights of non-stop dancing at the underground clubs. This beat just brings back waves of memories. Jeff Mills is one of the originators of this style of Dance Music which all started in Detroit. Used to listen to this on late night radio until I was old enough to sneak in, if they weren't patting you down for guns or large knives, and they would let you in if you looked 18 . The places were PACKED ! And warm from everyones body heat cuz outside it was snow and ice plus - 10° below zero. . .Glad I don't live out there anymore. Too cold. ⛅🔥🎹🐒💡

    Great genius I enjoyed. The wizard as people name Jeff to show the respect for the technique and the intensity of his art in constant evolution. The only one able to do this improvisation.Thanks 🤩for bringing your music and talent (techno) from Detroit to Berlin 1989.. Jeff Mills, Juan Atkins, Blake. (Detroit wasn’t ready)Tresor was the first discotheque in Berlin. People haven’t any idea who was mixing at the time… Jeff Mills still playing with Mulero and Ben Sims his friends… often in Belgium ( Gent) the Fuse , (Brussels) and Spain La Fabrika.. Frabrik in UK too I think. Aquasella in Asturias and various other beaches party in Asturias…This one is great sound with a ( simple) Roland 909

    Imagine this exact footage, presented back in '81, no words, no marketing, only Jeff on deck, playing this machine from the future. No one has ever heard such a performance prior.
    I think the launch of the 909, would have gone from making 10k units, to a never ending supply, straight through early 2000's. Then the advent of lazy people with laptops with no real talent, using auto sync and pretending to be talented, using samples dominates.

    Imagine if you was selling a TR-909 and Jeff Mills turned up to buy it and done this.
    You would just throw him out and keep the funking thing.
