Worakls

Worakls, real name Kevin Rodrigues (born 28 September 1988), is a French DJ, electronic musician, and composer.[2][3][4][5] He is known for his organic and orchestral instrumentation,[6] blending deep house, techno, and progressive house music in live shows.[7]

Worakls comes from a musical family and started learning the piano at age three. After studying at a conservatory, he dedicated his time to electronic music and composition, and at age 18, began to create electronic music.[8] He has found success with his remixes as well as his solo material and has shared that his influences are "mostly classical music, film music, and techno".[9]

Worakls has a daughter, who inspired him to create the single "54".[10][11]

Career

In November 2014, he founded the label Hungry Music with his friends N'to and Joachim Pastor.

A 2015 review in Billboard magazine referred to Worakls as a "rising French DJ" and described his tracks as "serious techno with a light touch", "full of focused, nervous energy."[12]

As of 2019, Worakls has released one studio album, several EPs, and numerous singles.
