Ta-ku for New Era from New Era Australia on Vimeo.
Having amassed an intimidating body of work, spearheaded by his Bandcamp charting release Re-Twerk, Perth’s Ta-Ku is showing no signs of slowing down with co-signs from Gaslamp Killer, Salva, Baauer, Shigeto, Flosstradamus, Nina Las Vegas, triple j Next Crop and Nosaj Thing to name a few. From an early output of dusty beat samples this disciple of The Ummah can cut and chop hip-hop beats in his sleep - but it’s his current material that shows a dancefloor edge not yet heard from the producer. This third video installment for the New Era Producers series provides an insight into the creative workings of one of Australia’s most promising music makers whilst also discovering the thought process that went into the design of Ta-Ku’s New Era 5 Panel cap, created in collaboration with Well Dressed Vandals.

Part 5: Melbourne - Endless Perspectives from Digitaldoes on Vimeo.
Sometimes you just need a little bit of luck.... After a 30 hour journey DOES and Strictua touched ground in a land down under. After initially losing the main laptop, luck proved to be on their side when the laptop was found and dropped off at the door of their exquisite residence. Infused with energy after waking up in summer temperatures, they had no trouble getting ready for a day out on the town and some serious site seeing. A meeting with Zvi Belling, architect of the ‘End-to-End Offices’, and a glance at the construction site, designated location for the Endless Perspectives show, quickly made apparent that plans had to be revised and changed dramatically. A bit of a shocker at first, but a great way to realise that it really all is just a matter of perspective: what at first sight appeared to be a hurdle turned out to bring about a new opportunity!
