Before the MPC became one of hip-hop’s most important innovations, before the LinnDrum helped define the sound of 80s pop and R&B, and before Prince made the LM-1 part of his sound, Roger Linn was a guitarist, engineer and inventor trying to make drum machines to accompany his demos. This video follows the story of the LM-1, LinnDrum, Linn 9000 and Akai MPC60 & 3000, and how these machines helped shape records by Prince, Janet Jackson, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, DJ Premier, J Dilla, Jermaine Dupri, Carl Craig, Just Blaze and more. In this episode of Behind The Record, we look at how Roger Linn went from would-be rock star to one of the most important instrument designers in modern music and how three machines helped create one incredible legacy. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro 00:45 - Before The Beat 03:31 - The LM-1 08:14 - A Quick Interlude 09:14 - The LinnDrum 11:42 - The Linn 9000 12:41 - The MPC
