Darren Purves was Born on the 16th of July 1991. 

He is an aspiring music producer and DJ from Scotland, 

with a passion for all types of dance music.  

His younger days were heavily inspired by the sounds of electronic dance music such as Trance and club music from the 90's. 

Over the years, the love for this music grew and led him to regularly attend raves and events. Darren became more and more obsessed with the dance scene. 

Unlike some DJs, Darren wanted to make the music he loved, rather than only playing it.  This sparked his interest and led him to discover Acid Pro 4 in his early teens.  

In the beginning, Darren experimented by chopping up acapellas and trying his hand at mash-ups. Progressively, he learned to produce on Fruity Loops and then ventured on to Ableton. 

Darren is now on a journey of discovering his own sound and sculpting his own unique style of music. Listen to his productions and mixes that can be found on his Sound Cloud or on his socials, linked here.
