Deemed to be one of the earliest deep house records ever, ‘Can You Feel It’ sees legendary Chicago producer Larry Heard, or Mr. Fingers, pair a Roland Juno 60 with a TR-909 to sublime effect. Despite the shoddy audio quality – the track was originally recorded to cassette in 1986 – ‘Can You Feel It’ still holds up today as one of the greatest dance tracks of all time, and it’s not uncommon to still hear it in night clubs on a regular basis.

Madonna’s 1990 hit ‘Vogue is one of the most notable instances of the TR-909 seeping into the mainstream, and it’s difficult to imagine the track without it. Listen closely, and you can hear the 909’s rolling snare and shuffled hi-hats working overtime to make ‘Vogue’ the dance floor smash that we know it to be, while that persistent kick drum just pounds away with a vengeance. This one’s nothing but a classic.
