A BRBP original that celebrates the iconic drum machine that helped give early hip-hop it’s signature sound. The “stereo” schematic presents two technical drawings (from the TR-808 repair manual) at once—one in red and the other in blue. After the red schematic is printed, the blue schematic is added using the cyanotype process. The result is a maximalist celebration of all the details we rarely see on electronic instruments. Each print is hand-coated and printed on archival watercolor paper and measures 11” x 14”.
