Roland Aira TR-8

We are very big fans of the 808/909 sound, so it was like a second birthday for us when Roland released its Aira series. As mentioned above, the TR-8 has the 909 on board and since a few weeks ago, the 707 and 727 too, all in one. The TR-8 also offers great performance opportunities, and the sound is solid in comparison with the original. The fact is, this gear is essential for us – you will find a bit of it in every production by us.

Bass Station 2

The Bass Station does exactly what you might expect of him: he offers a superb rich and deep bass that makes him perfect for our sound. And of course, this is why we use it more and more in our productions. Considering its price range, this little baby is a must have for house producers.

We used it in our remix of Munk – ‘Cartoon’:

Ableton Push 2

As convinced Ableton users, we love Ableton Push 2 as a controller for Live. It notably increases your workflow and sometimes we hate it for giving us very little sleep, because playing around is so much fun.

Beyerdynamic DT 770

The DT 770s are a perfect companion in the studio. They offer a bright and clear spectrum of sound, specific in the low and mid range and the wearing comfort is awesome.

In our opinion, the most important thing in making music is to know your headphones and monitors inside out. We’ve been working with the DT 770 for many years and we know how a track sounds when we hear it on these headphones.

Native Instruments Kontakt

This software sampler is truly a multi-purpose weapon! It’s our favourite and most heavily used plugin, especially because of its high quality samples when it comes to real drums or classical instruments. You can hear ensemble strings from the Kontakt library, for example, in our track ‘Lover’s Theme’ (on Sccucci Manucci)’, real drums in our song ‘The Look’ (Seven Music) or mallets in our track ‘Closer’ (Lagaffe Tales).
