ISU TAKI take over
𝐈𝐒𝐔 𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐈 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞
ISU TAKI is a collective of Latin-American DJs/promoters that began as a response to the lack of representation of emerging movements of underground dancefloors across Abya Yala (aka Latin America). These movements have in common the vision of re-vindication of the diversity of folkloric and traditional music by incorporating modern electronic beats to traditional melodies. ISU TAKI has been generating a space for new music genres such as folktronica, Andes grooves, Andes step, Afrofuturism, tropical bass, digital cumbia, Afrobeats, and more. As a result, a vibrant community has grown around it. ISU TAKI has organised events since 2019 across Melbourne(Naarm) and now extended to Brisbane (Meanjin), and NSW, while actively collaborating with other collectives in NSW, WA and QLD. They have toured artists such as Rodrigo Gallardo, Chancha via Circuito, Afrosideral, Rumbo Tumba, Martha van Straaten, among others.
