Bohrium Family
Akela
Akela is the dynamic DJ and producer duo comprised of Angel Mosteiro and Joel Vazquez. Hailing from Galicia, their paths converged in 2009, culminating in the official formation of Akela in 2020 after years of collaborative production and a deeply rooted studio connection in Madrid.
Their shared musical vision leans into timeless, atmospheric, and minimalistic soundscapes. Early influences from artists like Ricardo Villalobos and [a:rpia:r] broadened their perspective, while the new Romanian wave—featuring talents such as Barac, Sepp…—honed their ability to craft groovy, relentless, and classy dancefloor tracks.
Individually, Angel and Joel boast releases on respected labels like Tzinah Records. As Akela, they debuted with ‘Space Runner’ on their own vinyl-only label, Bohrium Records. This track, featured on the highly successful ‘EMPIRICAL TEST Vol. I’ – V.A, quickly garnered massive support from minimal scene heavyweights and sold out in a few days. ‘Space Runner’ exemplifies their signature: a dark, fresh sound blending intricate breaky rhythms with textured, atmospheric, and hypnotic synths, achieving a musical journey beyond conventional minimal deepness.
With over a decade of DJ experience, Akela delivers energetic, danceable sets. They’ve graced stages at top venues across Spain, including OFF Week Barcelona, and internationally in Romania (Cluj-Napoca, Bucharest..) Switzerland (Lausanne, Basel..), U.S.A. (Miami), Mexico (Tijuana & Mexico City). Akela is a burgeoning force in global electronic music.
