In the studio he has collaborated with international artists including Bleu Bird (Anticon) and Blue Foundation (Virgin) and Japanese artists such as DJ Krush (Sony), Kan (MSC), Goth Trad (POPGROUP, Deep Medi Musik).
He released his long-awaited first album in 2006, “SPINHEDDZ” on POPGROUP Recordings, which reached No. 1 on the Tower Records Indie chart and his highly-acclaimed mix series, produced and released on his own Dis-Defense Disc label continues to gain popularity with releases quickly becoming collectors’ items.
His remix work, scratch work and sessions have seen him team up with a wide range of people from national icons to BMX riders.

DJ DAIKI (FIERCESOUNDS / O’TOOLE )

Daiki first started DJ-ing in 1994 after becoming influenced by Hip-Hop, these first forays into the world of beats exposed him to many new forms of music and began to branch out into Ragga, Dancehall, House, Big Beat & Breaks.
He organised a huge party called „Synthsize Muzik“, it was 3 deffrent music, placed under the „Yokohama big Bridge“, 3000 people showed up and his name was known as a organiser and DJ.
While travelling between London & Madrid Daiki met Christian Verela, he invited Christian to play at his party he was organising in London alongside Chris Liberator, ant & himself. The party was a great success & led to him being asked to play at the ‘Kinetic Live’ ‘24 Hour Techno Marathon’ & ‘Galaxia’.
Daiki plays mainly techno but with a mix of breaks & acid. Always on the bleeding edge, his blurred-hand three deck aural assaults are peppered with new sounds designed to lead you to another dimension.
