There is more than one artist with this name:

1) Based in Los Angeles, TAKE aka Thomas Wilson is a composer who continues to push the boundaries of instrumental Hip Hop music into new directions. After multiple successful EP’s under his belt, TAKE finally unleashed his debut full length player in 2007: “Earthtones and Concrete”. This music is nothing short of an epic journey with continuously evolving collages that lead the listener down a dust covered road of bit-crushed melodies and molested jazz samples. Songs coated in emotion and rich in cinematic quality who’s auras’ retain the heavy burden of urban streets. The 30 year old multi-instrumentalist/dj/producer describes his music as “Rooted in Hip Hop but on a space ship headed for a new and better place… somewhere out there.” After studying music engineering and composition at The Evergreen State College in Washington, Take returned to Los Angeles to dive in and focus solely on music. In the last several years, he has composed and produced multiple 12” eps and remixes for labels such as Buttermilk, Poobah Records, Astro Lab, Eat Concrete Records and more. He also recently completed scoring original music for New Line Cinema’s - “King of Kong”, and “Clint Eastwood: A Life in Film”. Both of which will be released next year. Also, Take joined with the Dublab family for which he regularly delivers mixes and dj sets. Take has long been at the center of an ever growing scene of talented musicians/producer/djs in the Los Angeles area. As a co-founder of the legendary beat showcase night “Sketchbook”, he has fine crafted his dj sets for the last 10 years and also adapted his own compositions for an interesting live performance. Using a laptop, synths, samplers, guitar pedals and any gadget available to re-create his music, Take’s live sets strive to be more that just a guy staring at a laptop. He is also currently working with producer/keyboardist Black Monk to bring even more interaction into the live setting. Aiming to eventually have an interchangeable group of musicians and producers performing these songs. Take has been fortunate enough to share the stage, whether dj’ing or performing live, with such artists as Prefuse 73, Mos Def, Daedelus, Caural, Nobody, Ammoncontact, Scienz of Life, Flying Lotus, T’araach, Edit and more. Stay tuned for more music, more shows, and a continual effort and dedication to pushing music forward and awakening those who sleep. Eat Concrete is proud to announce that “The Dirty Decibels of Thomas Two Thousand” EP will be followed up by a full length album later this year (2008).

3) Take was originally a 5-member dance boy band when they first debuted in the Korean pop music scene in 2003. With clean and handsome appearances, the boy band stirred up the hearts of many young Korean girls. The boy band also won the Gold Prize at the Asia Music Festival held in Shanghai of China. After two years since their successful debut, the boy band returned to the stages as a 4-member band. Introducing more mature and sophisticated music than their debut album, Take put down great efforts in making their new album a hit.
