Grammy nominated music producer Taiko (Nicolás Jaña) was born in Buin, Santiago de Chile. He began making beats on the age of 15, reaching the ears of Black Koi Ent. Sky Rompiendo in 2019 by way of Instagram. Rompiendo later invited him to affix the label. Taiko sounds now seem on Dangerous Bunny’s “Una Vez” that includes Mora, “Straightforward” Jhay Cortez and “Rojo” J Balvin.
By the age of 11, having heard reggaeton all through his youth on the streets of Chile, on the radio and on TV, Taiko determined he wished to be a DJ. He began mixing in Digital DJ and about two years later downloaded FL Studio and made his first beats.
Nevertheless, Taiko by no means targeted on only one style. His works are constructed on three major pillars: minimalism, texture and environment. When he activates reggaeton, he often begins with a tune meant to take you to a different place, after which overdubs a reggaeton bass line to set the rhythm. He additionally likes to make use of the style’s traditional drums, modernizing them with varied processing strategies.
You’ll hear these components and extra in Taiko’s first Splice equipment. He hopes that you’ll use these sounds to experiment and create new sounds, a brand new interpretation of reggaeton or a very completely different style.
