Anthony “Shake” Shakir, who also uses the aliases Sequence 10 and Da Sampla, is an American techno producer, best known for
his contributions to Detroit techno. Shakir began producing in 1981, and worked with Detroit musicians such as Derrick May and
Carl Craig for many of their early Metroplex releases. Shakir appeared under the name Sequence 10 on the Virgin Records
compilation Techno: The New Dance Sound of Detroit.
While many of his peers on the Detroit scene have worked to increase their profile in Europe, Shakir never gravitated toward this
scene, working more closely with the second wave of Detroit techno musicians such as Mike Banks and Claude Young. He formed
the labels Friction in 1995 and Puzzlebox in 1996, the latter with Keith Tucker.
Among Shakir’s credits are remixes for Telex and Inner City, as well as co-production of the Urban Tribe’s 1998 album for Mo Wax,
“The Collapse of Modern Culture”.
