Roland, based in Japan, is one of the true giants of electronic music history. They created icons like the TR-808, TR-909, TB-303, Juno and Jupiter synths, each of which helped shape entire genres. Modern lines such as AIRA, Boutique, and Fantom keep those sounds alive while adding fresh capabilities. Roland’s legacy is reliability, innovation and cultural impact. From techno to hip hop to pop, you can’t escape the influence of Roland instruments.

The Percussion category here includes all of the electronic instruments and modules designed to create rhythmic and percussive drum beats & sounds rather than melodic or harmonic tones. This includes drum machines, percussion synth voices, sample-based units, trigger pads, and modular percussion modules used to build beats, grooves, and rhythmic textures.
Percussion gear is central to electronic and modern music production, providing everything from classic drum sounds to experimental rhythms and textures. These instruments are commonly used in studio and live setups alongside synths, samplers, and sequencers, forming the rhythmic backbone of electronic, techno, hip-hop, ambient, and experimental music.
