About Me |
|
In a short and spectacular career, DJ Eko has established himself as one of Australia?s premier Hip-Hop DJs; boasting a resume brimming with concert, festival, television and radio appearances, along with major label production credits, a recording contract, and national corporate endorsement deals.Nurturing his skills on Australia's fierce DJ battle circuit, Eko developed an incomparable technical finesse while competing against the country's leading turntablists. The young Sydney-sider would go on to conquer the scene and capture prestigious titles including the DMC and ITF Championship crowns - pinnacles of local competition.A musician in the truest sense of the word, DJ Eko approaches the turntables as any musician would their more traditional instruments, using them to build emotion and atmosphere amongst his audience in dazzling displays of self-expression. Recognising his honest and innate aptitude for his craft, both Rane and Serato Scratch Live have secured sponsorship/endorsement deals with Eko, appointing him a national ambassador for their market-leading DJ products. Corporate interest in Eko continues to develop, including relationships with alcoholic beverage giant Jim Beam [_Jim Beam Scratch DJ Project_] and national Hip-Hop publication Rhyme & Reason Magazine.Rocking sold-out stadiums and concert halls across Australia, DJ Eko has shared the stage with Hip-Hop?s elite, from Nelly to Cypress Hill, Naughty By Nature to The Beatnuts, Q-Bert, DJ Craze, Pharcyde and DJ A-Trak [Kanye West?s DJ], amongst a host of others. His exciting performances have been documented on television via MTV and Channel V, with his unique brand of turntable wizardry most recently attracting the interest of radio programmers. Eko can be heard weekly on Australia's only commercial urban format station, The Edge 96.One, as an exclusive 'Edge Mixmaster' - where his mixing prowess is broadcast to a market of over 1 million people.Away from the turntables Eko is carving out a music production career that has already seen him collaborate with prominent international Hip-Hop talent. Crafting soundscapes for the likes of Proof [R.I.P.] of Eminem's group D-12 and Rakkaa of Dialated Peoples, his list of production credits extend across titles released by major record labels including Sony BMG and Warner Music.Eko juggles his germinating production career with a hectic performance schedule - helming numerous residencies in Sydney's favoured clubs and playing guest sets interstate and internationally. And while the two-time 'Best DJ' nominee [Australia & New Zealand Urban Music Awards] is undoubtedly accomplished beyond his years, the opportunities, interest and appreciation Eko continues to attract suggests his name will only echo louder in music's arena as time progresses. |
