Didjitalis ~ St Pancras Station Session
This is the first video I’ve shot on my new camera, not bad considering I only looked at the manual 2 hours earlier! The only problem is… after 7 years of getting good with still photography it’s now back to school for video! It’s a little underexposed and slightly shaky as I was using a monopod rather than a tripod. Lessons learned and to be honest, Darien just asked me along to take some still shots.
“Didjitalis is a musical collective formed by a DJ, a jazz pianist and a didgeridooist. Known artists in their respective fields, they have come together to form one of London’s top live dance acts. With their unique blend of organic instrumentation, musicality, and cutting-edge technology, Didjitalis strive to create the most innovative live performances around. With a deep passion for the natural world firmly embedded in the band’s ethos, Didjitalis invite you to join them on a musical journey that explores our relationship with the Earth, through a sound that will blow you away!”
I was very impressed at how the band has progressed since I last heard them play, on Australia Day in 2012 at a bar in Balham. I took some photos at this gig and then some studio promo photos of the band last June. This was before André, their singer, joined them. You can see the earlier band shoot here.
They are next playing The Ship in Kennington on the 1st of June, I’ll be there taking some more photos and experimenting with the video.
