MIX DESCRIPTION
Hip-hop, downtempo and ambient make up this easy-goiong DJ mix from Deceptikon (Merck/Daly City Records)
BIOGRAPHY
Relocated to San Francisco via Tokyo via Seattle, Deceptikon spends his time making music &mdash a soundtrack for future-minded space travelers and skiff-jumpers from the 23rd dimension. The Deceptikon Industries studio, orchestrated by mastermind Zack Wright, is the basis for all operations.
The first Deceptikon 12″, released on Merck Records in 2003, was sold out only four
months after the initial pressing. It was followed by the critically acclaimed albums Lost Subject (2004) and Greater Cascadia (2007). Recently he teamed up with San Francisco bass luminary Mochipet and his label Daly City Records to release the highly anticipated third Deceptikon full-length, Mythology of the Metropolis.
Airports and rental cars are almost a second home to Deceptikon. He has toured
extensively throughout the US, Canada, and Japan, sharing the stage with a wide range of artists including Funkstorung, Richard Devine, edIT, Dose One, Blue Scholars, Proem, [A]pendics Shuffle, Tipper and Sutekh.
