Kano

"I'm Ready"'s famous bass-line has been sampled tons of times. That's a Moog Multimoog providing the line. -- Speaking of bass, the 808 is noted for its powerful bass drum sound, built from a sine oscillator, low-pass filter and voltage-controlled amplifier. The bass drum decay control allows users to lengthen the sound, creating uniquely low frequencies that flatten slightly over time, possibly not by design.

Italian disco/italo-disco/electro project. Based in Italy, it was led by producers, songwriters and musicians Luciano Ninzatti (guitars), Stefano Pulga (keyboards), and Matteo Bonsanto (producer), often with deep r'n'b vocals from Glen White. They released three early 1980s albums, scoring dancefloor hits with "I'm Ready" (1980), "It's A War" (1980), and "Can't Hold Back (Your Loving)" (1981). Although Kano is considered the starter of italo-disco by many, it also served as a bridge to electro and breakdance later in the 1980s. Link: www.discogs.com
