In the last episode of Fetishism’ WIDE Radio residency Koji introduces Akito from London and Arieshandmodel from Mexico City.
Akito is a London Based Producer and DJ with an uncompromising take on percussion loaded electronic Club music, Akito delivers a unique London-twist via global influences through his productions as well as his trademark off-kilter, steely DJ sets that have propelled his upfront style across the UK and International club scene.

Akito’s love for underground, percussive club tracks formed his ‘Sans Absence’ imprint, established in 2016 releasing Akito’s childhood friend Luke West’s debut ‘OOOOO’ EP, the label has since outputted a magnitude of releases from up and rising producers from the UK and beyond including 2 extended plays from Parisian hit-maker Sylvere and Bristolian Hard-Drum favourite Noire.
September the 14th marks the date of Akito’s most expansive and sought-after release, the ten-track LP ‘Gone Again’ will be released through London label Tight Knit Records on 12″ record and digitally world-wide. This release shows the artists most developed and explorative body of music yet, questioning further his approach to club musics form and function.
