His debut LP, when We We Were Young was relased on Something In Construction Records in 2006. He's since released twenty five (and counting) mixtapes via his webiste, akirathedon.com, including May's acclaimed The Omega Sanction, the precursor to his second album, The Life Equation, co-produced by Stephen Hague and due for release this Summer. Akira is one of very few artists to have bypassed traditional channels and built a direct relationship with a worldwide audience. His innovative and hugely popular blog/website www.akirathedon.com is a breeding ground for ideas and inspiration, as well as a direct link between Akira and his reader/listeners. His production work includes two top fourty hits for Lethal Bizzle (Babylon's Burning The Ghetto and Police On My Back) along with Big Narstie's forthcoming debut LP, and he has produced remixes for Gonzales, The Crimea, Air France, Marvin The Martian, The Voluntary Butler Scheme and many others. He’s performed live collaborations with Neon Neon, Lethal Bizzle, and Gonzales, toured the UK with his ever-evolving band The Women and staged a zombie-themed Life Equation-completion party/gig called Dawn Of The Don. ________________________________________________________________________________ After years of misadventure and hedonism, Akira The Don began to focus his energies on creating perfect pop songs.
