Richard Akingbehin is a UK-based DJ, label head, and curator whose work spans the outer edges of electronic music, with a focus on immersive, boundary-pushing sounds. As the founder of the influential label and platform TT (formerly Tobago Tracks), Akingbehin has been instrumental in shaping a generation of experimental electronic artists, championing global voices and unconventional club sounds long before they reached the wider spotlight.
Under his direction, TT has released genre-blurring work from artists including Kamixlo, Malibu, organ tapes, and VIOLENCE, becoming a vital hub for the emerging wave of post-club, deconstructed, and emotionally-charged electronics. The label’s output has consistently defied categorisation at once intimate and intense, digital and deeply human mirroring Akingbehin’s own curatorial sensibility: future-facing, emotionally resonant, and uncompromisingly bold.
As a DJ, Richard Akingbehin channels this same ethos into his sets deeply considered journeys through global bass mutations, ambient washes, fractured rhythms, and club textures refracted through a leftfield lens. He’s performed across Europe and beyond, with selections that reflect not only a sharp ear for innovation but a deep respect for the emotional potential of sound.
