AKL DNB presents the AKL DNB MIX SESH! Hand picking selectas from the www.facebook.com/groups/akldnb group to build on this series hosted here on Soundcloud.

Next up is Taiko! Hailing from Auckland via the West Coast of the North Island, he has played support from acts as varied as King Kapisi to Digital, from a paddock to a basement, from Fu to NOTW. Founding member of NZ Jungle Collective Momentum, and member of Mates & Crates he can be heard every Saturday 6-8pm on the Collector's Edition (formally Big Bot Radio) on Base FM. All his mixes are analogue - he just loves that sweet sweet black crack.

"I've tried to put together everything that I love in DnB. It's an incredibly varied beast and continues to evolve while not being afraid to look back at itself. I've included a lot of recent records and a few surprises from 'back in the day'. Minimal, rollers, drum funk, classics, tech, jungly elements all thrown together. It's not perfect but, fuck - who is? Heads down, bass up business. Hope you enjoy. X."
