Roland SP-404MKII Stones Throw Limited Edition
The SP-404MKII Stones Throw Limited Edition is the result of a collaboration between two legends of music culture. The SP sampler in collaboration with Stones Throw Records is more than a simple tool, but a work of art. With its custom front panel, exclusive content from the Stones Throw artist catalogue, and collector's vinyl and mixtapes, this groundbreaking release celebrates the creative spirit of independent musicians around the world.
The exclusive model features a custom Stones Throw front panel and special packaging. Both were designed by Jeff Jank, the legendary art director and illustrator behind major label releases. The high quality aluminium front panel with a mirror finish embodies the spirit of Stones Throw and the SP-404MKII.
In recognition of this momentous partnership, the SP-404MKII Stones Throw Limited Edition features additional content not available anywhere else. Firstly, a 7'' vinyl featuring two real boards by Kiefer and Mndsgn, each created with their own SP soundbanks. The other is a mixtape cassette by DJ icon J.Rocc featuring an exclusive mix of the SP-404MKII x Stones Throw artists.
Roland SP samplers are the undisputed kings of beatmaking performance. With their multiple functions and mobile designs, they act as creative fuel for creative musicians who are always on the go. The SP-404MKII embodies the latest generation of the long-lasting series: maximum performance thanks to the latest technical developments and updates based on input from the worldwide SP community.
