Tiki MC/DJ Set with Organikismness, Borderline and Badred

Tiki embarked on his solo artist career in January 2007 and has gone from strength to strength, becoming one of New Zealand’s most popular and diverse award-winning artists renowned as much for his powerful live performances as he is for his anthems.

In November '07, he released his debut LP "Past Present Future" which achieved double platinum sales and saw his beautiful acoustic love ballad “Always On My Mind” rise to No. 1. This tune broke two all-time NZ records - it sat in the charts for a record 54 weeks and was also the first-ever digital single to achieve platinum sales. In July 09, Tiki released his remix album “Flux” and currently is releasing his music in Australia as well as working on a new album for release end of 2010 in both NZ and Australia. Doubling as an audio engineer for top drum n bass groundbreakers Shapeshifter, Tiki is also renowned as a remix producer and gifted performance MC who has a solid reputation for boosting shows, musical works and recordings worldwide.
