Kylie Louise Ochsner, known by her stage name DAKU, is a Seattle/Tacoma based DJ, singer, aspiring multi-genre producer, event photographer, and digital designer based in the Seattle/Tacoma area. With roots in Bavaria, Germany, her unique heritage is embodied in her artistic persona, as ‘Ochsner’ translates to ‘Ox farm’—a nod to her grounded yet dynamic approach to music and creativity.

DAKU’s musical journey began in an unorthodox fashion. Growing up as an only child and sustaining a snowboarding injury at a young age, she found solace and inspiration in music, immersing herself in diverse genres with a particular affinity for drum & bass and techno. Her ability to connect with different sounds is a testament to her high-functioning autism and ADHD, which have honed her focus on her passions for music and art. In recent years, she has developed a talent for mixing, quickly gaining recognition for her energetic performances and her knack for creating goosebump-inducing moments on the dance floor.

DAKU brings a fresh perspective to the DNB (Seattle/NW Bass) scene. With a commitment to spreading positivity through her music, DAKU has already had the opportunity to perform on various decks at local EDM events, captivating audiences with her infectious positivity and sweetheart energy.

DAKU's journey into the world of photography started serendipitously. Initially gaining recognition for her striking photography, she captured the essence of fellow DJs during their sets using only her iPhone now using a Canon90d. A mentor along another established DJ helping her find how much of her soul she pours into this, instilled in her the belief that her artistry was worth pursuing. His faith in her vision propelled DAKU to explore both her photography and music more deeply.

In addition, DAKU maintains a keen eye behind the camera, blending her two passions into a cohesive artistic vision. Photographing and meeting artists such as Hedex, Dirtyphonics, Mob Tactics, Teddy Killerz & more, She’s photographed at The Showbox SoDo, Substation, ETT, and there meeting her photography mentor, who is a well known talent in media.

These affirmations fueled her passion, leading her to hone her skills in mixing, production, and music theory. DAKU discovered her ability to play by ear, allowing her to translate her emotional experiences into intricate sonic landscapes.

DAKU pours her soul into creating immersive musical experiences that resonate with her audience. Though she is still in the early stages of her music career, her dedication to learning and growth is evident in her sound. She continues to evolve as an artist, learning from the best and incorporating her unique perspective into her work.
