Live Review: ELKKLE gets raw in his latest self-aware single 'Don't Look Down'

Melbourne producer ELKKLE gets reflective with his new single and our new mantra 'Don't look down'

Melbourne producer ELKKLE, aka CALUM BAKER, is back with his latest experimental electronic single, 'Don't Look Down.' Brooding with raw emotion, 'Don't Look Down' takes listeners on a melancholic journey of self-doubt. Baker perfectly captures the universal perturbation of one's early twenties. An ode to change, exploration, and not knowing what comes next, it's cathartic to say the least.

"During the time of writing 'Don't Look Down' I became very self-aware that I was fearful of a lot of things," Elkkle said of the tale behind the track. "I was about to finish Uni, I was in a relationship, I was living independently- and with this all, came a cloud of uncertainty between myself and my future."

ELKKLE draws inspiration from acts such as NICOLAS JAAR and ARCA. 'Don't Look Down' is a tune for any person facing uncertainty on the path to success; a reminder to take risks, and continue to prosper.
