DAIIKON
In the heart of the Swiss mountains, Daiikon stands as a beacon of raw, uncalibrated sound, carving a unique niche in the underground house music scene. This production and DJ cooperative, whose name fittingly means "big root" in Japanese, cultivates a distinct blend of melodies and grooves that are as authentic as they are infectious. Originating in Geneva, a city celebrated for its electro music scene, Daiikon found its footing amid the pulsing rhythms of 80's New Beat and Acid House. Their studio in Carouge's old town became a creative epicenter, drawing in legendary artists like Sonja Moonear, Luciano, and Felix the House Cat, who contributed to their growing reputation.
Daiikon's influence extends far beyond the Swiss borders. As early adopters of internet broadcasting with the pioneering, albeit defunct, basic.ch radio, they showcased their forward-thinking approach to music dissemination as early as 1998. Their infectious grooves have since reverberated globally, making them Sheik'N'Beik residents in New York since 2009 and captivating audiences in Paris, Barcelona, Berlin, and Bogota. Whether performing live or producing new tracks, Daiikon's sets are a masterclass in genre-blending and energy, creating an unparalleled sonic experience that sidesteps clichés for genuine musical connection. Their journey from Geneva's underground scene to international acclaim is a testament to their relentless creativity and passion for pushing musical boundaries.
