Ian Axide

Ian Axide who originally hails from North Western Spain, is now a London based artist, and known as a powerful DJ, producer and label boss. His trademark sound is on constant trip-rotation drawing the majority of his inspiration and influence from the underground techno scene.

In the late ’90s Ian honed in his skills as a frequent DJ at various clubs around his cloudy and coastal hometown; throughout these experiences, a premature understanding of dance music and his love for the underground rhythms meant that he could translate his techno music taste onto vinyls with his label Emphatic Records. On which, you can also find top artist collaborations. The impact of his tracks allowed Ian to share the turntables with top class DJ´s such as: Jeff Mills, Ben Sims, Alexander Kowalski, Luke Slater, James Ruskin and many others who are recognized on a national and international level.

At present, Ian is also the co-owner/creator of the prestigious vinyl label Black Codes Experiments in collaboration with Cristian Varela and also is eager to add a pinch of his very own sound on various upcoming exciting projects.
