Aiokai comes to TLILTIC Records with his first EP on the label. This producer has been exploring everything from the sounds of juke/footwork to future garage. In the past this artist was known for his takes on liquid and neuro drum and bass, but in his latest releases he seemed to drift away from them, leaving fans wondering where he was heading. It seems that probing is part of what this artist is doing now, having no boundaries and untying himself from making just one genre

The EP continues with Love Kills, Hate Builds. This is an anthem to what the world seems to turn into when we are at our worst. The allure of this song comes like blooming flowers, with delicate arrangements and harmonies that inject themselves in a juke/footwork 160 bpm beat. It all seems perfect until it comes to a breakdown full of heavy guilt and sorrow, which violently turns into a war of minds, just like an ideal day turns into a seemingly never-ending battle. The tune goes back to its starting grace, remembering us about the changing tide of life. As this record ends, it is clear that we can expect more interesting and eclectic releases from Aiokai in the near future

At the end of this release comes Streets, which turns a normal amen break into a groove that could fit any jazz band, as pianos embed themselves marvellously on top of them. Thanks to this composition, listeners will be able to take a trip on the streets of what the producer likes to call ‘inspiring nostalgia’

Aiokai comes back to TLILTIC Records with his first EP on the label. This producer, formerly known as Drifter and who also goes by Midnight Ezra, has been exploring everything from the sounds of juke/footwork to future garage. In the past this artist was known by his takes on liquid and neuro drum and bass, but in his latest releases he seemed to drift away from them, leaving fans wondering where he was heading. Wait no more, Aiokai comes back to his junglist roots and brings us what we were waiting for

Realms 2021 is an EP that first reimagines Realms, a track that has been an identifier for the producer. This tune has always been proof that the creator knows how to handle melodies, as he plays with may of them, with synthetic sounds jumping through the soundscape and mixing with the many pianos in it, making it an ethereal experience of emotion and beautiful chaos

It was time for the mexican producer Aiokai to join LOWFREQMX. He has been part of the mexican junglist scene for some time now, and now he proudly represents it with a banger that’s going to take it by surprise. Throughout Aiokai’s productions you can always hear something –the influences of rave music, and ‘Fallin’’ is no exception to that. Starting with 90’s style piano chords, the song lushly progresses into a hybrid of rollers and jump up, whilst dance floor-ready vocals fill in the soundscape. This energetic heavy hitter is of those tunes you wanna hear coming out of big sound systems in festivals and raves alike

After the success of ‘Fallin’’ by Aiokai, a rework was more than necessary. Commissioned to LOWFREQMX’s head honcho Isaac Maya, you would've thought this was going to be a Drum & Bass remix, but what came next was as unexpected as it could be. Isaac Maya slowed down things to 130 bpm to bring you a Bass House banger that is ready for the most demanding dance floors in the world. Be prepared, this Breakbeat infused recreation of the original will certainly blow your mind.

Aiokai is here with his first release of the year. With this new tune, the producer is setting the groundwork for what he wants to communicate to any of his old and new listeners. Using his signature sounds, hyperactive energy and frenetic state of mind, Aiokai is stepping up to what he wants to become. It is clear that he has gone through different settings, but now he is only concentrating on Drum & Bass, with his rave music influences and staple productions. Zeroed Existence is about letting go of any boundary the ego might create, about powering through anything and about being ravenous.

Aiokai has visited many different colours of the drum & bass palette, and this time he does so by producing a dark and brutal neuro tune, with hints of rollers. Darklands (Annihilation) lives in a grizzly and grainy dimension created thanks to dirty, yet clean noises. Aiokai’s drum programming goes to the next level in this new concoction of his, fitting it all together with screechy and hellish basslines, damnable foghorns, halftime drums and even ragga vocals. It all goes back to the artist´s old school roots, together with contemporary sound design. This is by far, one of Aiokai´s most interesting and mature fabrications. Prepare to be transferred into a world of insanity, aberrations and frenzy.

Aiokai’s gritting and brutal Darklands (Annihilation) single has received the remixed treatment by 2 of Mexico’s most exciting bass music producers. This time, the neuro production has been turned into a banger by Daxl, who fuses his metal style with dubstep/drumstep, giving the original song two very varied drops with some 175 bpm halftime madness and the typical dnb beat. Darkho goes deeper into his experimenting habits turning the heavy hitter into a hard techno flip by using the hellish basslines and damnable foghorns over a 4 on the floor pattern, and by going even more insane in the second drop. It is easy to say that these two versions are equally demented and ready to make the dancefloors rumble and the moshpits bloody.

This producer presents himself again in the way that he knows best: by creating intangible soundscapes, followed by immersive feelings that are represented by the thoughtfulness behind his harmonies & melodies. Delayed pianos dance around an empyreal atmosphere filled with beautiful perceptions and little deceptions. The raw and irenic vocals chase down all the drum processing of the rowdy amen breaks that are fitted perfectly on this consoling rendition to UK Garage
 
As the first two-step drums cease, an unreal and breathtaking ambience comes to life, taking you into an awe-inspiring journey whilst your deepest feelings jump around the firmaments and dimensions this rhythms devise. As soon as the drop hits and the pianos roll, all is fine. The nostalgic lyrics remember us to appreciate what we have in life as we deem it possible to enjoy the trip. All the suffering and the all yearning for what is sometimes far away suddenly turns into old memories stacked in the back of an older you. It is not easy to step up the mountains, keep going to see the top and glance back to the past that happened a few seconds ago. Everything exists at the same time, and when you did not even notice it —wars exploded like fleeting mercurial dreads, great planets in the cosmos ruptured like crystal spheres filled with sand and mythological creatures dwelled around their last breaths. Follow the song, never let it back, drive it as it drives you, and keep going. Life is filled with immense moments that nobody sees, but the cosmos never thinks twice about continuing its everlasting expansion
