n his first EP,  Golden Daze,  Darln sends you on a percussive journey fueled by driving bass lines and complex beats that soar above colorful and intricate soundscapes. Driven by a scrappy diy ethos, Hickey is content to exist in the in-between spaces of genre. Darln draws its strength from ambiguity of where it sits on the lofi post-rock or retro-future synth-pop spectrums.

Written, Recorded, and Performed by Adam Hickey 

Vocal Recording, mix, and master by Sara Shin

Ephemeral (Instrumental)

Nostalgia

Golden Daze

Fusing the warm, sample-based organic electronica of acts like Caribou and Bonobo, the nostalgic reverb-laden guitar-rock haze of bands like The War on Drugs and his own idiosyncratic melodic-yet-melancholic  pop sensibilities, Darln is the debut solo recording project of Montreal-based musician Adam Hickey.
