Orik is a House music record producer and DJ from Africa Nairobi, Kenya.

Tony Maione was truly musically born at the end of the 70's after a steady diet of Pop and Rock music fuelled his early years. He discovered the nature of the DJ and Dance Music in 1979 in a little club where Dance Music of the time was regularly pumping through the house sound system. He was fascinated to feel this kind of music and sought out to experience DJs mixing 2 songs together. So much so that he started on his way to becoming a DJ. Within 2 years Tony was playing records in the small club outside Naples and soon after worked his way into the most important club in Naples. Over the past 35 years, his DJ career has enabled him to play at many venues throughout Europe including clubs and events in Greece, Germany, Italy and Uk .
