"Oscar Peterson on the Roland PianoPlus! (and TB-303 & TR-606)
This is a scan of an old 1982 Roland brochure I managed to keep all this time - HEY! so this is what Roland thought was good use of a TB-303 & TR-606! never minding that the TB-303 actually managed to change the direction of music forever from 1988 to date with the acid resonance movement!!!!"

  3. Oh please tell me this is a Photoshop!

    A 303 and a guy in a tie looks mega strange. It could only look stranger if it was the pope playing a theremin.

  4. I would rather see someone use the 303 like this than some acid dribble. Makes me think back to the post that was made about songs that used the 303, but not the way you'd imagine.

    my name is Suit & Tie Guy and i just spent 2 hours making people shake their ass with my x0xb0x and TR-909 so i'm really getting a kick out of these replies.
