ABSTRACT This article explores Prince’s LM-1 rhythm programming techniques and sound ideals by considering song examples, interviews with Prince’s engineers and musicians, and online fan discussion. It is argued that given the constraints of music technologies in the early 1980 s and the production workflows for using them, Prince’s drum programming remains a model of compelling groove-making. By sequencing rhythms, finger drumming drum fills, and incorporating unusual timbres from effects processing, Prince imbued the LM-1’s mechanical sound with the vibrant feel of a live drummer.

王子的节奏编程:1980 年代的音乐制作与 LM-1 鼓机的美学

摘要 本文通过考虑歌曲示例、对 Prince 的工程师和音乐家的采访以及在线粉丝讨论,探讨了 Prince 的 LM-1 节奏编程技术和声音理想。有人认为,鉴于 1980 年代初期音乐技术的限制以及使用它们的制作工作流程,普林斯的鼓编程仍然是引人入胜的凹槽制作模型。通过对节奏进行排序、用手指敲鼓填充,并结合来自效果处理的不同寻常的音色,Prince 为 LM-1 的机械声音注入了现场鼓手的充满活力的感觉。
