Full Bio

Akriza [uh-krih-zuh] is a DJ, producer, and multi-instrumentalist making ancient future music — globally rooted bass drawing on instruments and traditions from around the world. The name is an anagram of Zakari; Zachary, his given name, means "God remembers." He didn't design that. He discovered it.

The sound lives in bass, 140, and half-time tempos from 50–120bpm — diverse in influence, unmistakable in signature. Sets are built as journeys with complete emotional arcs, able to carry a high-energy club night or a downtempo room. Live, he brings piano, guitar, and live looping into the electronic frame — an organic element bridging electronic production and instrumental performance, filling the gap between music that's too fast and music that's too slow, moving both mind and body.

He has played Envision, Burning Man, and Cervantes, with releases on Odyzey and Gravitas and over 3M streams. He currently writes and produces from the Andes. The intention behind all of it is simple: music that helps whoever's listening remember who they are.
