TECH CLUBBERS PODCAST W/ AAKAARA

AAKAARA is a London based producer, and visual artist working in mediums of screen printing, audiovisuals, and graphics.

His taste in music and production style has been described as “sounding like a defunct cargo train.” Weirdness & thoughtful toughness are core sonic principles for AAKAARA. All formats of his work (visual, sonic) are conceptually focused on black hole dynamics, asemic writing, detritus, & distortion.

He has released music on Silva Electronics, Degenerate Matter (2019), an album entitled Obsidian Promises (2023), and a dark ambient audiovisual album called Metasilence (2019) on Ghunghru. His latest release, Petroglyph I is a new direction in which he creates intricate ceramic CD case artifacts as a physical counterpart to the hard hitting, distortion-coated techno.

He also runs a party in London called Exquisite Corpse, which showcases local artists who each bring a radically different expression of techno and beyond, ranging from broken, hypnotic, leftfield, noise, groove, body music, and industrial. The intent of these parties are to contrast the monotony of sub-genre specific nights and re-embrace eclecticism within a single evening. These parties are also paired with a parallel screen printing practice that is integral to the overall building of the graphic-artifact world.
