Joakim, the Parisian musical-polymath and head of Tigersushi Records, has been keeping the scene in awe with his eclectic releases for well over a decade now. Throughout his career, he has constantly managed to put out music that actually deserves the rather worn out label “avant-garde”, while never leaving the listener with a “doing homework”-sort of feel.

Forward ever, backward never!
