Thanos by Tjaka

Crowd favourite, ‘Thanos’, pulses with raw energy, blending modern hip-hop with a relentless, high-octane guitar melody. Produced by legendary hip-hop artist, Tom Thum, thunderous trap drums drive the track’s villainous edge, carving out dynamic pockets for Jake and Geoff’s poignant commentary to unfold. A deep, shadowy sub-bass intertwines with the earthy resonance of the Didjeribone, grounding the track’s lightning-fast rap flows. Capturing the unbridled intensity of the band’s live performances, ‘Thanos’ is a sonic force that demands attention.

Speaking on the meaning of the track, Geoff reflects on the mindset sometimes needed to succeed:

“Thanos is all about that villain mindset - being relentless in pursuit of your goal. Everyone loves a hero, but no one can deny the baddest villains of them all are staunch and will do whatever it takes to win. We can all use this villain mindset positively by putting it to something we’re passionate about, whatever that may be.”

Tjaka is a trailblazing music trio from Meanjin/Brisbane, consisting of two Fabila brothers, Geoff and Jake, and their close friend Felix Fogarty. The name is derived from Tjakamarra, the skin name given to the brothers, proud descendants of the Jabirr Jabirr tribe in the WA Kimberley.

Their music style is a fusion of electronic and hip-hop sounds blended with Aboriginal ancestral influences.
