London-based DJ Akhs is a co-founder and resident of PYRA, a growing collective focused on Afro House, Afro-Tech and melodic house, bringing together global rhythms and underground club energy across some of the city’s most distinctive venues. His sets are built around groove, tension and flow, moving through hypnotic percussion, melodic progressions and deeper late-night selections that allow the music to evolve naturally on the dancefloor. Drawing influence from artists and scenes across Africa, Europe and the Middle East, Akhil’s sound sits at the intersection of Afro-inspired house music and melodic underground club culture. Through PYRA, he has helped curate and deliver a series of sold-out events across London, building a community around carefully programmed lineups and atmosphere-driven dancefloors. The collective has hosted nights at venues including SushiSamba, 12th Knot, Aqua Nueva and The Conduit, establishing a reputation for intimate yet high-energy events rooted in connection, rhythm and shared experience. Whether playing extended independent sets or collaborative lineups, Akhil’s focus remains the same: creating moments where the room moves together, guided by rhythm, emotion and the energy of the crowd.
