GAIKA自称是“贫民窟的未来主义者”,以强烈的实验和难以定义而闻名。他出生于伦敦,在夜总会长大,父母分别是牙买加人和格林纳达人。他与3D (Massive Attack)、Dean Blunt、Kelela和SOPHIE等大牌合作,在Warp Records和Big Dada发行,并与皇家歌剧院合作创作了有史以来第一部黑人导演的芭蕾舞剧。
为了寻找机器中真正的幽灵,GAIKA重新激活了一组老式合成器和一架70年代早期的原始电子钢琴,创造了“模型GKZ”,这是他正在进行的科幻研究项目GKZ的一个半机械人项目。GKZ对未来伦敦多元文化的想象激发了他们穿越时间线,融合了grime、jungle、Rand;B、数字舞厅、mpc驱动的说唱、日本嘻哈、底特律科技、动漫配乐和新古典实验主义等元素。这是一个大气的工具包,使复古未来的电子音乐,同时怀旧和前瞻性思维,结合复杂的补丁设计与动态和情感的人类表现。
“它违背了简单的惯例。”

A self-professed “Ghetto Futurist”, GAIKA has a reputation for being fiercely experimental and impossible to define. The London-bred, night club-raised son of Jamaican and Grenadian parents, he’s become a staple of UK experimental music, working with names like 3D (Massive Attack), Dean Blunt, Kelela, and SOPHIE, releasing on Warp Records and Big Dada, and composing the first-ever black-directed ballet with the Royal Opera House.
In searching for the veritable ghost in the machine, GAIKA has reanimated an array of vintage synthesisers and an original early-70s electric piano to create ‘Model GKZ’, a cyborg entry to his ongoing science fiction research project GKZ. GKZ’s imagined future of multicultural London inspires the pack to traverse timelines and hybridize elements of grime, jungle, Rand;B, digi-dancehall, MPC-driven rap, Japanese hip hop, Detroit techno, anime soundtracks, and neoclassical experimentalism. It’s an atmospheric toolkit for making retro-futuristic electronic music that is simultaneously nostalgic and forward-thinking, combining intricate patch design with dynamic and emotional human performance.
“It defies easy convention.”
