00:00Dance music in that early part of the 80s was really changing.
00:18The new musical movements, they come with new instruments.
00:22Your music has got to sound hard and aggressive.
00:26That machine just has a magic button on it.
00:30It redefined music.
00:31Take the clubhouse, your Miami bass, your Rio, your Valley Funk, even faster with the
00:40drum and bass.
00:41Planet Rock sort of just did something else too.
00:43We had never heard anything like that before.
00:45That bass has so much punch and so much force.
00:48What's the bassline of Planet Rock?
00:50It's doom, doom, doo-doo-doom, doom.
00:53There didn't have to be a tune.
00:55It can just be noise.
00:56It's time to chase your dreams.
00:57Hop out your seats.
00:58Make your body sway.
00:59Socialize.
01:00Get down.
01:01Let your soul.
01:02Don't you think you're shaking now?
01:03Go ladies.
01:04It's a living dream.
01:05Love life.
01:06Live.
01:07Come play the game.
01:08Our world is free.
01:09Do what you want, but scream.
01:10The rhythm of an 808 has its own internal groove.
01:17Any record that's made with a real 808 has a certain feel that you just can't reproduce.
01:22You see this beat going.
01:26That's the 808, lads.
01:28It's the most futuristic thing I've ever heard.
01:30Like, what?
01:31A drum inside a machine?
01:32It's crazy to think that a little machine like this left such an important footprint
01:37in the music.
01:38808 paved the motherfucking world.
01:41The 808 kick provides a fresh ring, the samples harmonize as the hi-hats sing, the beat has
02:07been heard, rated superb, listeners are pleased by the sound of the reverb.
