(2004 – present)

Since back in the early 90s when he first got hold of a home computer, Akira’s roots have been planted firmly in the underground digital arts scene know as the “Demoscene”. He’s been a hyperactive member of the electronic culture world, not only in his Hometown of Buenos Aires, Argentina, but on a global level.

8GB, an audiovisual project developed in 2004 as a natural flow of Akira’s activities both visual and musical… , and his fixation with old computer hardware utilized in modern working environments, aims towards creating currently danceable beats with old computer data, making a blend that can be enjoyed by most any audience interested in dancing to fresh new sounds, while still retaining appeal for the bleep-obsessed nut. House, electro, breakbeat and techno usually flirt with dubstep and latin vibes, on energetic livesets that include powerful stage energy and visual feedback thanks to the set’s super synchronized live visuals.

Having performed in the most varied events around half of the planet, from Buenos Aires to New York to Amsterdam to Latvia to Japan, from tiny microparties to reknowned clubs like Sugar Factory, to Blip Festivals and Creamfields and Onedotzeros, for 10 to 1000 people, 8GB “mixes the high frequency beeps of old computers with a good hiphop beat, minimal techno or hard house music that Dave Clarke would probably enjoy, with demonic beats sometimes almost equal to those of The Prodigy” (3VOOR12, Holland music press).
