Ring & Dorf

It's been a while since I uploaded a set on my Souncloud page. Last year I was quite busy with the start of my master’s program and took some time for other things during the lockdown (such as finally read more!  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ). In the last weeks I got back to music stuff and tried to record a classic Darko-Set, which I probably would have played live in a similar way. I really hope you enjoy the journey and that it can conjure up a bit of festival and club feeling in your living room.

I'm excited to see what will happen this year, and hope that we all don't lose sight of the beautiful enjoyable things around us, that we can be damn thankful for every day. Even if, at the same time, I can understand very well, that a lot of frustration and gloom has spread in a lot of us. These are strange times and many things are unfortunately so unfair, and yet, somehow I also believe that there are beautiful sides in all the things that happen, too. 
I like to have this sentence in my mind: It’s always a question of perspective. <3

Stay curious, stay healthy, see you very soon and I’m happy to get feedback. :)

Nichts ist absolut. Alles verändert sich. Alles bewegt sich. Alles dreht sich. Alles fliegt. Und verschwindet. (Frida Kahlo) 💫 

This is my Darko FRIDAy Night Set from Atlantis Stage at Bucht der Träumer* Festival 2022 :) I'm so happy to show it to you and I really hope you will enjoy listening to it. 🎶

Thanks to everyone who joined and danced with me. I'm very grateful for having this spacial magical moment together with yous <3 

I wish that we can all have the courage to show our fallibility and be honest with ourselves. Because I believe that this honesty is the smallest common multiple of our connection. And then we can learn. Then we can develop. Then we can forgive. And be able to go further. All together. With the flow. In tact. In the moment. That turns. That moves. That flies. And disappears.

Frida Darko - Friday Night @ Atlantis - Bucht Der Träumer* 2022

Hey there amigos, it's your Frida 'Rhythm Wrangler' Darko and I'm so happy to finally share a new Set from Mexico with you! From Crania, Playtime 0 - 2 am. ✨🇲🇽

This mix is like a piñata full of musical treasures just waiting to burst open. So grab a margarita and join me on this musical journey - it's going to be a fiesta you will hopefully enjoy a lot, influenced by lovely artists I found & met in the last years <3 And of course, I appreciate every kind of feedback 🎶 🙃

Gracias Crania - for this magical night and treating me so well in the day I visited your place. I am in love with your way of thinking and building a special place in this world.  https://craniareclaim.com

Frida Darko @ Crania - Mexico Edition, Feb. 2023

Sooooo... first of all I have to say, it was not only my first time playing at Sisyphos. It was also my first time ever! So when a good friend showed me around I was stunned by this beutiful island. I mean, I've heard rumors and stories, but I had no clue. 

Than, when we entered the Dampfer, I had a little breakdown. An hour before my gig it was packed from one end to the other. I was so nervous! Planning on playing my usual sound I knew that I was at least 10 BPM slower than other DJs playing here. Would it work out?

But, yeah, what can I say... I was welcomed by a hungry crowd from the first kick on and together we hit it off for 3h straight! The first nervousness vanished and time flew by in a glimpse.  And than something unforeseen happened: playing my last track I was told that the next DJ was missing and that I will have to play another hour. This last hour was not from this world! It will stay in my heart for a very long time.

So here it is, my four hour porschride through Dampfer! From 3 am till 7 in the morning. I'm so thankfull for the people who made it possible and who joint & supported me. I could've not asked for more!

Please enjoy! And as usual: leave a comment, repost and press like if you fancy to. I'm always happy about your feedback :)

Thank you @bisu-andyou for the recording & mastering <3

Here is my recording of probably my favorite party of the year!

It's too nice to play for friends and familiar, beloved faces and our event at Glashaus shows me every year why I love collecting music to show others. Playing from 04:30 to 07:00 ist probably my most favorite time, taking some of the energy of the night and transitioning it into the new day with more of a melodious sound. 
With Marie (@maria-theresia-von-eberg) and Maria & Mathieu (@marieu-heimlich) we had the best guests we could have wished for. It was great with you.

I often think to myself that I should always play new songs, but lately I just try to play what I want to hear at that moment without letting myself be guided too much by any distracting thoughts. So not too much new stuff in this one but I still hope you like it. 

Bussi baba,
Moritz

This is my set from Atlantis, Sunday afternoon, 3-5:30 PM. It was such an honor to play this slot, especially right before Acid Pauli and Monolink. - knallt wie saure Gurken 🥒💥

Huge thanks to everyone who danced with me. I was already sparkeled with the magic of this unique festival and all the lovely people around me there. But this gig? It was like the ultimate prickle on top. Much love to my @rebelliondertraumer crew 🧡

This time I picked up the pace a bit, felt like switching the Darko Bounce up this time. Hope u like & enjoy this set, I appreciate any kind of feedback & support :)

Special thanks to @at_ric for weaving my intro vocals into his new Track: 
No Break - @plasticrobots (Atric Remix)

PS: How could it be any different – once again, I accidentally hit cue out of excitement somewhere in the later part of the set haha ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ruling with kindness and graciousness over Darkoville, the Princess of dark tunes and deep-driving Downtempo rests profoundly within her realm. With every track she plays, with every drop she makes, she will be watching you. She astonishes every royal court she had the honor to play for, with an insanely clever ear for trackselection and taking some of melodic technos’ most raucous bangers, and slowing them to an unfathomable bpm that works so well, it makes your bones shatter. Spending most of her daytimes being sleepy and hiding it with a big interest for meditations and comtemplations about live, the nighttime, when all lights shimmer and silhouettes move, is when she rises to her real grace, becoming one with the crowd, cheering in her dolphin-like ways and embracing the dancefloor with a contagious joyfullness.
