GAIKA
"To me, music is so important. We get married to music, we bury our loved ones to music. It soundtracks our most public and most deeply intimate moments." — GAIKA
Newly signed to Big Dada Recordings, multidisciplinary artist, hip hop polymath, and experimental rapper GAIKA is moving at maximal decibels, taking listeners on a psychedelic, pulse-racing, and groove-soaked trip with his second full-length album Drift, his most stylistically accurate and personal music to date. "My thing has always been if you try your best, then it doesn't really matter what happens. I've busted my ass off and I'm intensely proud of Drift. It's the best album I've made and the truest and most honest album I've made.”
His music and art transcend borders, and his nomadic nature means he simultaneously belongs and doesn't; his music cannot be confined to just one genre, and this unique new record further cements him as one of the most progressive artists of our time, telling the tale of modern day renaissance man driving away from the economic hierarchy he doesn't believe in.
GAIKA also set up a number of situational arts facilities in the heart of London, including shows at ICA, 180 the Strand, Somerset House, British Art Show, and Now Gallery and as the world reopened, created pop-up galleries, studios, exhibitions and raves which echo the ethos of NINE NIGHTS and his own.

Keep up to date on all things CDR
Since we started back in 2001, CDR has been all about community, creating spaces for people to connect and develop through music.
Back in the Plastic People days, you could fit all of us in one small room around one soundsystem. Today, our projects and programmes extend from the dancefloor to schools, youth centres, as well as grassroots clubs and venues across the country and further afield. But in challenging times, with grassroots organisations like ours closing all around us, every bit of support counts.
Your help will enable us to continue delivering music programmes and events in the UK to the people who need it most. Our mission is simple: to build an equitable music ecosystem for producers and artists.
