D.Clakes "Vladimir Linnik" is a Russian producer and international DJ

Clakes had his start in music in his home city of Vladivostok when he came across the work of renowned Dutch DJ, Hardwell. Inspiration struck and Clakes was soon absorbed in the world of electronic music and dreamed of one day attending Tomorrowland Festival. Clakes moved to China and after an intense period of learning the ins and outs of DJing, he began spinning tracks in Chinese clubs.

With a head full of ideas and knowing he was destined for more, Clakes spent three years honing and perfecting his production skills with the goal of releasing his own music. He released his first track in 2020 and has since worked with various independent labels including Soave Recordings, Darklight Recordings, Metanoia Recordings, Sirup and Hardwell’s own label, Revealed Recordings. Clakes has also received support from huge industry names.
