This clip features our buddies Seekae a couple of years back on ABC Radio National rocking one of our earliest Tee’s. It’s always cool to see where our gear winds up!
Named by LIFE Magazine as one of the most important Americans of the 20th Century, DJ AFRIKA BAMBAATAA is a musical visionary, DJ extraordinaire, living legend and founder of the Universal Zulu Nation – a collective of socially and politically aware emcees, DJs, graffiti artists and break dancers.
We have a double pass to give away for his Oxford Art Factory show this Thursday 16th May, thanks to our friends at Way-2-fonky & Slingshot. Head to our Facebook page for more info!
As the temperatures drop, we’ve got you covered with these super thick 350gsm crew necks, featuring a discrete embroidered logo in both black-on-black and burgundy-on-burgundy. Available in store here and at selected stockists!
In case this slipped through the net, be sure to give this free 35-track compilation a spin courtesy of the 2011 installment of the Red Bull Music Academy held in Madrid. Download it here.
“The Various Assets – Not For Sale compilation holds some of the wild juxtapositions and magical moments that happened when people from all corners of the world found companions in sound – and discovered they spoke a similar language despite contrasting backgrounds and methodologies.
Chances are you might hear some of these artists playing a festival or two this year, or dropping an EP that turns your dance floor upside down. If that’s the case, reset your compass points, and join us en route to who knows where. Check the tracklist and download the compilation below. Included in the download is a PDF booklet with the stories behind the songs.”
Take a massive chill pill in the form of sounds from Slow Country. Download the album from their Band Camp here!
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.
