A tribute to one of the machines that became part of the pulse of electronic music.

The TR-909 Graff Faded Gradient T-Shirt features an original hand-drawn design by Shiro Fujioka aka Voltagectrlr / Kez One, transforming the legendary TR-909 into a graffiti letter piece. Knobs, sequencer buttons, switches, faders and control-panel details are worked directly into the lettering, merging the geometry of the drum machine with the movement and personality of graffiti.

Created as part of RHYTHMIC GEOMETRY: Studies in Sound, Machine & Letterform, the piece celebrates the 909’s connection to techno, house, electro and generations of underground electronic music.

Printed on a 100% cotton faded gradient T-shirt, the washed finish gives each shirt a worn-in, individual character that complements the raw quality of the original drawing.
