Tuka

There are more that one artist know as Tuka: 01. Australian Hip Hop artist 02. Norwegian Electronic artist 01. After years of humbly impressing Australian audiences as a member of Thundamentals, Rumpunch and Sketch the Rhyme, Tuka has come forth and distinguish himself as one of the country’s most exciting lyrical talents. As comfortable rocking over a stomping Gypsy horn line as he is over Dub-Reggae or a driving Boom Bap rhythm. A veteran of the scene, Tuka has played everywhere from Woodford Festival and Sydney Festival’s First Night, to iconic venues The Hordern, The Metro and The Palace Theatre. His approach is both highly melodic and rhythmic in nature, and freestyle comes as naturally as composition – he regularly performs entirely improvised sets, and as a host of triple J’s National Open Mic and guest on FBi’s Stolen Records, he has showcased that ability over national radio more than once or twice. 02. Torbjørn Brundtland (10 May 1975) makes up half of the duo Röyksopp. Brundtland was born in Tromsø, Norway. He appears as Tuka only once, on a great album "Arctic Circles 2" (1999).
