    Ta-Ku “Sway” / Suff Daddy “Suffdigi” | @TakuBeats @suffdaddy

    Ta-ku:Suff Daddy

    How about a couple funky beats for you to vibe to. Check these two out from Ta-Ku & Suff Daddy that will be on the upcoming collab EP Bricks and Mortar dropping 4/5/13.

    Have beats will travel: Suff Daddy and Ta-ku have teamed up for a split EP recorded in Sydney and Perth, Australia. When Suff moved from Berlin to Sydney last summer he quickly hooked up with Perth based producer Ta-ku, best known for his „50 Days For Dilla“ project. „Bricks & Mortar“ unites two beatpals with pretty different soundscapes but one common mission: looking for the perfect beat!

    Ta-Ku “Make It Last” Release | @TakuBeats

    make it last

    Australia’s Ta-Ku is back at it with his Make It Last EP. Check some info, listen to the songs, and download the project all below. #thebeats

    Within everything we do here at LFTF, there’s still nothing more satisfying than to witness an artist we know deserves it finally see their rise. For Perth, Australian beatmaker Ta-ku, the climb to the top has been a long time coming. In 2008, Ta-ku was invited to attend the esteemed Red Bull Music Academy in its Barcelona chapter—an undoubtedly prestigious feat that is sure to kickstart any budding artist’s career. But afterwards, while fellow RBMA classmates Teebs and Onra went on to take over the music word, Ta-ku’s ascend, for whatever reason, didn’t come as quickly. Although coming with just as impressive works, he realized that if no one was going to give him the credit he deserved, he was going to have to go out and take it. From that point on, Ta-ku became one of the hardest working beatmakers in the game, releasing project after project—from compilations to bootleg packs to dedication mixtapes—not letting a moment go by without new music in his fans’ ears. 2012 amounted to Ta-ku’s most impressive year to date, not only artistically but socially becoming one of the most buzzing beatmakers in the game.

    The only way to go is up for Ta-ku in 2013, and we couldn’t be more excited to start him off in the right direction with his stunning Make It Last EP, complete with four tracks that see the artist medling his hip-hop and soul roots into uncharted arrangements and ideas. Download now above, and let it be known that Ta-ku is here to stay.

    Ta-Ku “50 Days For Dilla (Volume 2)” Release | @TakuBeats



    I remember last year when producer Ta-Ku dropped a 50 Days for Dilla project. The first half of that project was re-released in March, and now here’s Volume 2 for your ears and hard drive. Grab it below or from iTunes.

    HW&W Recordings is excited to announce the release of the second half of Ta-Ku’s 50 Days for Dilla project. For this project Ta-Ku wanted to pay a tribute to his greatest influence by creating a new beat each day for 50 days straight. Ta-Ku utilizes signature drum swings, chilling melodies, and soulful sampling in creating this fresh compilation of hip hop instrumentals. The project was split into two volumes with each containing 25 tracks each.

    50 Days for Dilla vol. 1_ was released digitally under HW&W in March 2012 with the vinyl following two months later in May. We are very proud to debut this project as HW&W’s first official vinyl releases. Volume 1 was met with overwhelming response and the vinyl sold out within 6 hours of its online release.

    HW&W is releasing _50 Days for Dilla vol. 2_ digitally on **July 24, 2012**. It contains Days 26 through 50 and is available for purchase on iTunes & Bandcamp.
