TAUAWHI IS PROUD TO PRESENT AKIRA KHAN FOR HIS AUCKLAND DEBUT!!
AKIRA KHAN is a trap musician based in Brisbane, Australia. The artist himself pioneers and is a representative of the trap subgenre known as death trap which is a combination of both death metal and trap. Since 2015, AKIRA KHAN has been creating and releasing Electronic music, and not only until recently in 2020, he rebranded his alias title to his proper name "AKIRA KHAN" which over many languages and cultures translates into "brilliant king". Over the years, the artist has created a story of lore and world-building within his title and his music, exploring fantasy themes and philosophical concepts such as dragons, kingdoms, end-of-the-world scenarios, and the object of fire to accompany the listening of his music. Through this, AKIRA KHAN is also prominently known for his creation of concept albums within said lore and world-building, in which his first concept album "Armageddon" was released in 2021 and explored a first-person perspective of the listener saving the world through the chronological order of the album.
Through many creative projects and musical history, AKIRA KHAN strives to provide others with innovation and the aspiration to be creative and experiment with what is unique to oneself. The artist holds these said values close to his heart especially when it comes to his music and representation of innovation through his creative projects.
With a hand selected support lineup in tow this is set to be a wicked night for bassheads!
