AKARI

DJ · Tokyo · Japan

About

AKARI brings a distinctive blend of house and tech house that draws heavily from global sounds, particularly Gqom and Amapiano. Known for layering the dark, driving basslines characteristic of Gqom with funk music's infectious percussion, AKARI creates a sound that hits both the mind and the body. With international DJ experience under their belt, they've developed a refined ear for fusing UK genres and funk elements into seamless sets that keep dancefloors locked in. Whether diving deep into tech house grooves or exploring the darker textures of deeper electronic territories, AKARI's approach is rooted in genuine genre appreciation rather than surface-level trends. The result is music that feels lived-in and purposeful—the kind of set that reveals new layers with each listen.

AKARI is a Tech House DJ in Seoul from Tokyo. They have performed at Queendom, Lion, ZUBAR. See 1 upcoming event below.
