Looking for a Drum Machine

Hey all. So although I think I know about drum machines, I really don’t, so with that being said, I need help finding a nice drum machine. My budget is about 1000$ Here’s a list of what i’m thinking so far:

-Digitakt -TR8S -Machinedrum -Analog Rytm MK1

I’m looking to make beats in the style of Thom Yorke, Aphex Twin (hence the TR8S), Boards of Canada, and Massive Attack. Please hit me with any suggestions! Thanks!

Edit: I do realize that many of the beats that these artists create come from samples, so with that in mind, I want something that’s pretty straightforward. Obviously, the digitakt has samples built in, which is a plus, however it is mono, which i’m not a huge fan of. The TR8S does 909 and 808 sounds which i’m a fan of, but I feel like in the end, it would be a bit limiting. I’m looking for something that really has options as to modifying sound and creating something unique, but using those artists i’ve stated as kind of a starting point
