Mixed by Okabi: Sleepwalkers Global Podcast #39

Hello everybody and welcome to the latest episode of the Sleepwalkers Global Podcast. This week we have another great mix for you and we are happy to have Okabi on the show. Okttavio G.R. (OKABI) was born on the island of Gran Canaria (Spain) in 1983. Fascinated by electronic music since early age, he began to mix vinyls, being influenced by artists ranging from Rhythm Masters or Klubbheads and Anthony Pappa or Lexicon Avenue to Peace Division, Adam Beyer, etc. At the age of 16 he started to work on a local radio showing the pioneering vision that store their sets. It is also in this time on the radio, which lasted until 2005, where he began to experiment with his first samplers, synthesizers and sequencers. In the following years his performances like residencies in several clubs and in some of the most influental halls of the island had a huge influence on the club scene. Later he combined his studies of electronics technician with the instrumental interpretation, which helped himself to start creating mixtures with more professional finish. He has worked with several music groups and artists in their blends and arrangements and he has edited several works with various pseudonyms. Currently he is also editing as "Hifi Box" exclusively in his recent own label, "Kowloon Recordings". He has an eclectic vision in his productions, though if anything defines this artist, is the "Underground" air and the rhythm on his personal work.
