Unafraid of Mother's stories:
we are delighted to share this 06:45:48-hour long sonical voyage, traversing cracks, smudges, and stitches, beautifully threading its way through the audial experience. An unconventional lingering awaits you, and we recommend immersing yourself to break new grounds in the realm of space and time.
Thank you for all the artists compositions feautured in this journey.

"women... what can u say? ... who made them? ... god must be a fucking genius!" (vocals by mr. Al Pacino)
(inspired by Sandra M. and one of my top-favourite movies, "Scent of a woman")

Childminded feat. Al Pacino - "Passport to heaven"

Composer/Percussionist/Pianist/Producer based in between Berlin and Aotearoa/NZ
Industrial-Tribalism / Avant-Electronic / Neo-Noise / Ambient

Digital//anything in between//Analogue

a musical kaleidoscope that is one part percussionist, one part keyboardist, one part composer, one part producer, and all parts unforgettable. Expect: intricate keyboard playing, bold expression, complexity, simplicity, and a wild ride.

Tak is a class act that has worked with other class acts such as Shackleton, Strike Percussion, Nik Nowak, David Delgado, Jepe, Matilda Abraham, Samin Son and 404. As well as recording and touring with these artists, he’s released several albums of his own music and had a track on Spotify that had over a million downloads, which may not be as big a deal these days but I promise it was impressive at the time.

He was born in Japan, raised in Aotearoa and now lives in Germany. He also performed in London, Helsinki, Tokyo and Shanghai along the way.

You probably don’t want to miss this musical kaleidoscope perform.
