Kyle Slater to music – What’s the Connection?

A family of professional musicians …his father Colin Slater OAM, his sister Gian Slater, exceptional singer and academic … and of course Nathan.

Kyle had to face the toughest critics with his invention within his own family.

Taking Nura to the Toughest Critics:

“We’re about music, and the journey from the artists through the sound engineer to the listener,” Kyle told me. “All the hard work that people put into that music. Obviously we’re proud of our product as a technology company, but we don’t want to go and tell the music industry it’s great. We thought it would be arrogant not to go to them, that it would be far better to show it to them, be honest about what our product’s doing, and listen to their feedback.”

“I was in LA last week with Frank Tetaz and Gotye, they had a listen. I was over in London and showed Warp Records and Young Turks, Abbey Road, Mix mag, great places. The reaction was awesome.”

“I was really concerned with how the music industry would be viewing what we’re doing – we hoped the perception would be that we’re delivering their music exactly the way they want it heard, rather than using technology to mess with their mixes.”

It’s amazing and inspirational to read about the Evolution of Nura Technology Read how the research began … the successful Kickstarter Campaign … the formation of the global company to bring Nura to the world.
