Future Classic: Ta-ku “25 Nights for Nujabes”

Beats

Ta-ku is truly one of the most talented and prolific new producers out there but not only that, the guy is mad generous too.

Last year the Australian producer started a project that was pretty ambitious: a 50 day tribute to the late J Dilla, one production per day, an he actually pulled it off. If you like Ta-ku, we strongly suggest you check out the exclusive mix he did for us a few months back.

This time he’s embarking on another project, for another producer gone too soon. This is 25 Nights For Nujabes.

“A beat a night for 25 nights in dedication to Seba Jun.”

About Seba Jun: Jun Seba (瀬場潤 Seba Jun, February 7, 1974 – February 26, 2010) was a Japanese hip hop producer and DJ who recorded under the name Nujabes (ヌジャベス Nujabesu (Inspired from his own name “Seba Jun” read from right to left?), the reverse spelling of his name in Japanese order.
