“Timeless journey sets, influenced by world music and followed by like-minded people.”

Darren’s journey began in the late ’80s with Street Sounds Electro and the Oxford free party scene, leading to his first set at Oxford’s Coven in 1993 and a residency in Majorca soon after. Back in the UK he became a resident at the legendary Splash parties, sharing flyers with Farley “Jackmaster” Funk, Heller & Farley, Judge Jules, Brandon Block, Sister Bliss, and Alistair Whitehead. With residencies at Esta-Loco, Cellar, and Sweet, and guest sets from Underground (Spain) to Canvas and Play (London), Darren built a reputation for deep, driving sets. Now hosting RE NAO and SUBSYNC, he continues his passion for crafting timeless journeys that move both body and mind.

Dan - Drums

Dan has been on the drums since the age of 13, with roots in heavy metal that grew into a passion for rock, funk, and soul. A versatile multi-genre drummer and percussionist, he’s known for his precision, creativity, and ability to adapt to any style. Alongside live bands, Dan also brings his percussion into the DJ world — adding congas, bongos, timbales, and rhythms that transform a set into a live experience. With a unique talent for blending intricate grooves with dynamic feel, he lifts both bands and DJs to new levels of energy. More than just a timekeeper, he’s a musician who brings character, presence, and unforgettable rhythm to every performance.

Barg

Barg is a sonic craftsman with over three decades behind the decks, shaping dancefloors with a deep and diverse palette spanning deep house, house, breaks, techno, and garage. His sets are immersive journeys—raw, soulful, and rhythmically rich—built on instinct and an encyclopaedic knowledge of underground music. Emerging from the fierce energy of the early ’90s hardcore scene, Barg cut his teeth in warehouses and radio, where BPMs were high and the vibes were higher. His deep love for analogue gear pulses through his sets today. It’s not just nostalgia; it’s a commitment to texture, grit, and authenticity. Whether spinning vinyl or digital, Barg doesn’t just play tracks—he tells stories. From smoky basements to festival stages, he’s remained true to the underground ethos: pushing boundaries, honouring roots, and keeping bodies moving.
