DARCIIDARKA is a longtime DJ & tastemaker of the Drum & Bass sound, hailing from Burlington, VT and currently residing in Gainesville, FL.  In the French language Darcii translates to “’the dark one’” and over time she has developed the nickname, “Darka”.  In her earlier years she honed her craft as a Drum and Bass vinyl DJ in New England, while hosting many residencies and performing at underground raves, grass roots festivals and nightclubs, all over the region.  In recent years, she’s making big waves in the southeast, sharing stages with iconic D&B artists such as LTJ Bukem, Bryan Gee, Bladerunner, Bad Company, Danny Byrd, DJ Hybrid, Jumping Jack Frost, Mampi Swift, DJ SS, DJ Craze, T.R.A.C., Aphrodite, The Prototypes, Matrix and Futurebound, Sicknote, FAVA, AK 1200, Monk, Dave Owen and SOLA.

Always representing the genre properly, she is the founder of the prestigious “Renegade Sound” monthly showcase and is Resident DJ at historic Gainesville, FL venue, Simons.  Darcii & Renegade Sound made big moves to host the ‘World of Drum & Bass’ tour in 2023 and in 2024, she landed herself on three of the four Florida stops. 
Whether throwing down a technical, deep journey set at a show, home recording mixes, promoting the genre or supporting her peers, she is extremely community driven and one of the hardest working artists out there. Not to mention a RUDEGIRL on the decks, with her classic dark, captivating style.  With many creative projects in the works, stay tuned for so much more, from this loyal Junglist soldier.
