Arkadia

Arkadia is a producer & DJ residing from Australia, who is taking his influential sound and projecting it to the world. The 24 year old says, “I want to bring something raw and exciting to the world of dance music. We are in the electronic age where artists come and go in the blink of the eye; I don’t want to be one of those artists.” At 16, Arkadia became engulfed by the world of dance music. “I would spend every night at the record store in the city listening to all the new records that came in that day. At the end of the week I’d go in and buy all the records I had put aside. I remember pulling out ‘Lifelike & Kris Menace – Discopolis’ and playing it for the first time and thought; I want to produce music like that!” Completing his certificate in Music Production at 19, Arkadia has since been releasing records under a different alias. His first track was released as winner of the Pete Tong Bedroom Bedlam competition in 2008 and since has seen him release records for some of the biggest names in the business. Armada, Baroque, Zouk Recordings (Armada), 405 Recordings (Armada) & OneLove are labels recently to have signed his work with remixes for Sharam Jey & Three N' One not to mention support from Matt Darey on both his Nocturnal Radio shows. With an arsenal of tracks already behind him, a podcast show gaining rapid support and a lifetime of love for production and performance, Arkadia looks forward to what the future holds and hopes you'll follow him on the journey.
