For the 116th release on Perspectives Digital, label owner Darin Epsilon returns with Garuda Rising, a track born from a moment of inspiration during his recent tour in Bali.  The initial spark for the song ignited while waiting at Ngurah Rai International Airport, and from there, the idea blossomed into an electrifying fusion of deep bass, atmospheric depth, and captivating melodies.

Following the monumental success of his recent tracks Janissaries, Nirmata, and Tengri, Darin continues to push the boundaries of sound with his distinctive blend of melody, rhythm, and groove.  His unwavering dedication to creating unforgettable dancefloor moments has solidified his reputation as one of the most sought-after names in the global Melodic House & Techno scene.

The title Garuda Rising is deeply symbolic, drawing inspiration from the legendary bird-like creature of Hindu and Buddhist mythology that serves as Indonesia’s national emblem.  Representing strength, freedom, and resilience, the Garuda is a powerful symbol of the country’s rich heritage and spiritual traditions.  Much like its namesake, Darin’s track embodies a sense of ascension and transformation, with soaring melodies and driving rhythms evoking the spirit of flight and liberation.

A true pioneer of the genre, Darin has performed at some of the world’s most prestigious festivals, including Amsterdam Dance Event, Ultra Music Festival, Burning Man, and BPM Festival.  His remarkable talent has been showcased at iconic venues such as Ministry of Sound and EGG (London), Ritter Butzke (Berlin), Stereo (Montreal), Sound Nightclub and Exchange (Los Angeles), to name just a few.  With releases on the renowned labels Ritter Butzke, Siona Records, Katermukke, Einmusika, Renaissance, and Selador, Darin consistently earns praise and recognition from tastemakers across the electronic music world.

As Perspectives Digital approaches its 15 year milestone, Garuda Rising serves as a testament to the label’s continued influence and commitment to cutting-edge electronic music.  Get ready for a captivating sonic journey and unforgettable experience designed for peak-time moments on the dancefloor!

BIOGRAPHY

Darin Epsilon is a globally renowned DJ, producer, radio host, and label owner, widely celebrated as one of the pioneers of Melodic House & Techno and Progressive House. As the host of the Perspectives radio show and podcast, he has reached tens of thousands of listeners each month, solidifying his influence within the global dance music community. Since launching his label Perspectives Digital in 2010, Darin has continually expanded his artistic reach, further establishing himself as a key figure in the electronic music scene.

Originally from Chicago, Darin’s early career was shaped by his pivotal residency at the legendary Vision Nightclub. This was followed by his move to Los Angeles in 2008, where he worked with renowned brands such as Insomniac at Exchange LA, GIANT at Avalon and Vanguard, and Monday Night Social. His journey continued in 2017 when he relocated to Berlin, the world’s electronic music capital. By 2022, he further cemented his position on the global stage with a highly coveted DJ residency at Ritter Butzke, one of Berlin’s most beloved venues. 

Darin's career milestones are a testament to his pure talent and determination. In 2011, he gained international recognition by winning John Digweed’s 'Structures Two' DJ Competition, sponsored by Bedrock and Ableton Live, and in 2016, he was nominated for 'Best Progressive House Artist’ at the Beatport Awards. He also became the first artist ever to release a Progressive House production tutorial after teaming up with SonicAcademy.com, further demonstrating his expertise and commitment to music education.

Throughout his lengthy career, Darin has released on the industry's most recognized labels such as (in alphabetical order) Einmusika, Katermukke, Renaissance, Ritter Butzke Records, Selador, Siona Records, Sudbeat, and Warung Recordings. His tracks have consistently charted in Beatport's Top 10, and he has garnered widespread acclaim working alongside top-tier artists such as DJ CHUS, Fur Coat, Jerome Isma-Ae, Hernan Cattaneo, Miss Monique, Quivver, Robert Babicz, Sasha Carassi, Sebastien Leger, Sydney Blu, among countless others.

Over the years, his distinct melodic sound has been supported and played by the biggest DJ’s in the world including Adriatique, Agents of Time, Eelke Kleijn, Einmusik, Fideles, Hannes Bieger, Hernan Cattaneo, Innellea, John Digweed, Joris Voorn, Korolova, Miss Monique, Nick Warren, Nora En Pure, Pete Tong, Sasha, Solomun, Township Rebellion, Vintage Culture, Yotto, and the list goes on and on.

As a gifted student of music from an early age, former record shop employee, and former director of a college radio station, Darin draws inspiration from his nearly encyclopedic knowledge and genuine appreciation of electronic music. He cites a variety of important influences in the past decade, from the early Leftfield and Future Sound of London albums, to the iconic Global Underground compilation series, to the sweeping sounds of Paul Oakenfold circa 1999, to Sasha & Digweed's mind-blowing Delta Heavy tour in 2002.

If you have ever been in the audience to catch one of his live sets, it becomes immediately apparent that he is proficiently skilled as a DJ as well. His ability to connect with audiences is unparalleled, and his relentless touring schedule has taken him from the world’s most prestigious venues—Ministry of Sound and EGG (London), Avalon and Exchange (Los Angeles), Stereo (Montreal), The Bow (Buenos Aires)—to the most popular festivals such as Amsterdam Dance Event, Burning Man, Ultra Music Festival, BPM Festival, South By Southwest (SXSW), and Berlin Dance Music Event.

However, it would be foolish to say that his achievements have been purely confined to the club setting. Darin’s music has also caught the attention of global brands like MTV, Algoriddim djay, American DJ, Elation Professional, and Global Truss, for whom he has licensed content and provided the soundtrack to their promotional videos. His tracks have also been featured in several feature films, placing him among a select group of producers whose music has graced the big screen.

With hard work, passion, unwavering dedication to his art, and support from the industry's most revered names, this Chicago native turned Berlin transplant aims to prove that this is only the beginning to a long and promising career.
