AKWA is starting to make a major impact on the house and techno scene within Ontario and 2023 is proving to be a new chapter for the 2001-born DJ, producer, and event curator. The Ottawa native has been on a hot streak this past year and had the pleasure of being support for major headline acts like Luigi Madonna, CREEDS, Will Clarke, CID, James Hype, Loud Luxury, Medusa, Interplanetary Criminal and the German techno powerhouse KOBOSIL.
Determined to grow the local scene in Ottawa, AKWA has curated and hosted over 7 shows in his hometown through his new underground techno event collective SIGNAL. A fan and curator of parties since an earlier age - starting the collective just made sense. Since May, SIGNAL has hosted international DJs Will Clarke, X-Coast and ZEDDA K along with 26 local acts across 10 shows including 2 sold-out block party shows on one of Ottawa’s most iconic streets - BANK ST.
Since graduating post-secondary in 2023 from Queen’s University with a bachelor's in Film, AKWA has taken his skills of film and editing into his DJ/event projects by creating fully edited and mixed, multi-camera video archives of each set played at a SIGNAL event available for streaming online.
Backed by fans in Ottawa and Kingston, AKWA is now based in Toronto where he’s determined to further establish himself and SIGNAL as an underground music powerhouse within Toronto and Canada as a whole. Recently fresh off his festival debut this summer at Veld Music Festival 2023 the young DJ, producer and event curator is ready to make waves in the scene while also growing its community in 2024.
