TOKA

Toka began DJ'ing in 1990 and started promoting parties in 1993 with the first Bosh event in the back room of the Hope and Anchor in Coventry, a venue which had hosted the upsurge of the two tone movement. Toka launched the Bosh label in 1998 as a sister label of Shaboom who he was working with as licensing and A&R. Bosh Records was initially an outlet for Toka's co-productions with Mark 'Blakkat' Bell who released a string of EP's under his Artilect moniker, a project exclusive to Bosh. The label went on to release 38 vinyl records from artists such as David Duriez, Chris Simmonds, Jason Hodges, Harri and the Revenge, Grant Dell, Spettro, Toka and many others. The success of the label spurred on his DJ career and Toka went on to travel extensively including 2 tours of USA, and regular gigs across Europe. As well as his solo releases, Toka has a number of ongoing collaborative projects including Rogue Faderz, Kreepz and with bosh artist Yana Paisley. He has also produced remixes for labels including Detour, Simple Soul, Shaboom and Blue. Bosh Recordings is now digital only but continues to attract great support.
