Akira Kiteshi
After honing his skills in the badly lit basements and Velcro floored clubs of Edinburgh, Akira Kiteshi AKA Tommy Forrest has pulled off a meteoric ascension of nose bleeding velocity. With his debut release Pinball smashing its way out of the Hip Hop scene crashing through the walls of Dubstep landing main stage. Now a widely acknowledged UK Bass classic with plays across international radio, Pinball was also featured in Universal's Step Up 3D and Jason Derulo's live shows!
Now a recognized leader of the form, his debut album 'Industrial Avenue' is garnering support from a roll call that includes names like Mixmaster Mike, Busy P, Benga, Laurent Garnier, Nero and Chase & Status, every new Akira creation is anticipated across the electronic music gamut.
