The mR-606 drum machine is reminiscent of the classic 1980's beatboxes that heavily influenced both the Detroit and Chicago house music scenes – the forebears of modern dance and techno music. These classic boxes were re-discovered by the rave and acid music collectives of the '90's in the UK and in Europe, and have been popular ever since.
MPD Software founder Calum Deas today said “I’m extremely proud of the mR-606. What started as an idea for an app while working with DJ’s in Ibiza last summer has become a labour of love. We realised that a lot of cultural heritage resided in these little drum boxes, and that we had a responsibility to keep the spirit of these machines alive in their digital form. Anyone who owned an original, or is a fan of electronic music, will instantly recognise the familiar sounds of this app from thousands of classic records produced through the years.”
mobileRhythm mR-606 is now available in 3 versions: iPad, iPhone and Universal, for use on any iOS device. It is priced at $5.99 in the U.S., £3.49 in the U.K, and is priced accordingly in other regions. mobileRhythm mR-606 is available world-wide from Apple’s App Store, or by visiting: http://www.mobileRhythm.co.uk
