Squelch and serendipity.
Forces collided in the mid-'80s, bringing together a Japanese synth manufacturer and driven artists from Chicago in the United States to birth an entire cultural movement. At the core of this movement was a passionately creative group of musicians and three now-legendary musical instruments.


Designing the Phuture.
Along with Earl "Spanky" Smith Jr. and Herbert "Herb J" Jackson, DJ Pierre formed the groundbreaking group Phuture in 1986. When they picked up a secondhand Roland TB-303, DJ Pierre’s inspired knob-twisting altered the frequency and resonance of the bass patterns to invent a sound that would impact music forever. He went on to become a quintessential dance music producer with decades of cutting-edge house productions to his credit, and the master creator shows no signs of slowing down.
