Darren’s passion for music started at an early age, from rummaging in record bins for Acid House at the age of 10, spending hours frequenting record shops all over the UK, to endless weekends spent at some of the biggest UK clubs including Cream and Sankeys.
Darren used this time to hone his ear for the biggest dancefloor destroying beats and observing what made the most ‘up for it’ crowds tick. Inspired, it was from these experiences he took to the turntables at 17, honing his craft and drawing from his influences through the trance era, from the likes of Paul Oakenfold and Sasha, to the later techno/tech house maestros James Zabiela and KiNK.
He has concentrated on what he does best...getting the crowd moving! His energetic style with doses of house, techno and anything in between, has laid the foundations for what he brings to Auckland, as co-founder of Burnout Music Events NZ which for the last 4 years, has brought a massive slice of the atmosphere and energy of Europe to Auckland
