That\u2019s like the first thing you would go download when setting up a new computer for production.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Decap:<\/strong> \u201cThe first time I heard an 808 sub was probably in &#8216;Nuthin But a G Thang&#8217; by Dr. Dre and Snoop. You really felt it when listening to it in a car with subwoofers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Knocks:<\/strong> \u201cMarvin Gaye\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rjlSiASsUIs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&#8216;Sexual Healing&#8217;<\/a> is probably the earliest song I remember hearing 808 sounds on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trakgirl:<\/strong> \u201cI studied Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis heavily, and one of their key tools was the classic Roland TR-808. They used is in most of their classic records. I love Timbaland\u2019s usage of 808s too.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Where do you see the 808 going in the future?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Mannie Fresh:<\/strong> \u201cIt\u2019s endless because of technology and all the new ways to twerk drums and sounds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Louis Futon:<\/strong> \u201cIt seems like the trend now is either short 808s with trap music or longer 808s with tons of slides. I&#8217;m pretty happy with this trend &#8211; I just want to hear them being used creatively.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ryan Hemsworth:<\/strong> \u201cIt\u2019s sort of shifted the general dynamic in music mixing. It\u2019s not just a tool for rap; it can be a necessary key to achieve heavy low end in any genre. I love how melodic it can be, beyond just being a driving bass. People are distorting and effecting it more and more, putting it through guitar amps, etc. I think that\u2019s only going to be pushed further in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>NOVA Wav:<\/strong> \u201cWe believe that as technology continues to grow, listeners will be able to not only hear the 808, but technology will allow everyone to have the power of synesthesia, which allows one to perceive sound in color, among many other things. Some of our greatest musicians are blessed with this condition including Pharrell Williams, Charli XCX, Duke Ellington, Mary J. Blige, Frank Ocean, Stevie Wonder, and Kanye West.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Medasin:<\/strong> \u201cI can honestly say there&#8217;s no way for me to know. I remember when XXXTENTACION first came out with just entirely destroyed, completely mangled, distorted 808s and I was honestly confused and pretty taken aback at first. I\u2019ve now watched that become a very common norm &#8211; people have sort of cleaned up that sound, and now we hear it extremely often in hip hop. Point being, I just never would&#8217;ve thought we would literally be exploding our 808s with distortion and evolving to a point culturally where that&#8217;s literally a viable, cool sound that&#8217;s widely accepted by listeners. So, who&#8217;s to say where it&#8217;s headed? Though I can say I do love what people like Sophie, Kenny Beats, and Flume are doing with really tightening that tasteful distorted and stereo 808 sound, interjecting a lot more personality into their 808s. But then again, some of my favorite current tracks have the most simple basic 808s that have been used for years. All I know is, wherever it&#8217;s headed, the 808 will always be the 808. As far as I\u2019m concerned, it has now established itself as a core instrument that&#8217;s vital to most modern music, like a kick drum or clap.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Decap:<\/strong> \u201cI\u2019ve been noticing that over the years, since most people now listen to their music on phones and laptops, low end bass frequencies have become less prominent in the 808, and more of the midrange is processed to stand out. I think that if speakers in our phones and laptops get better at producing lower frequencies, we\u2019ll hear more of the low end in 808s come back. If not, we\u2019ll continue to hear more creative processing with the mid range frequencies. I also think that 808s in general are going to get more distorted, aggressive, and\u2026 amazing!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Knocks:<\/strong> \u201cIt\u2019s hard to say because producers are getting more experimental with how they use gear. Regardless of what happens, though, we don&#8217;t see the 808 going anywhere anytime soon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trakgirl:<\/strong> \u201cIt will always be a staple moment in records and within the production process. I feel like the 808 will live forever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How are you celebrating 808 Day?
