The Darsh Sessions

The Darsh Sessions continue sessioning right along with this month's installment: Dinner With The Darsh. DWTD is the recording of a mini pop-up twitch stream that occurred during the mid-September dinner hour in this Eastern Daylight Time corner of the world. Originally intended as a groovy little collection of tunes to prepare/eat dinner to, the set morphed into a bit of a banger I have to admit, like an after-dinner coffee for the ears! Definitely some dodgy mixes here and there but overall it was quite a fun time behind the decks. Thinking of turning this into a regular-type stream going forward: tune into The Darsh, have a little nosh, a little vino, raise some glasses, smash some plates... you get the idea, LOL!

Big love, everyone. See you in the next sesh.

The Darsh Sessions #02: Dinner with The Darsh

The Darsh Sessions returns in 2024 with its 11th installment of unique house type goodness. Recorded live from a twitch stream back near the beginning of December 2023, this set is definitely more up-tempo than the previous few Sessions while also coming in shorter than those at a brisk 90 minutes. From deep, organic swirls of synth to fist-pumping piano house anthems to Taylor fn Swift, this mix has a little bit of everything as I continue to explore whatever it is that makes this darsh house sound. My only desire for you the listener is that the journey is worth the ride.

Much peace & love, everybody! I'll see y'all in the next sesh.

The Darsh Sessions #11: Weaving the Tapestry of Night

The Darsh Sessions returns for its 12th installment, an unabashed celebration of all things afro, deep, organic and tech. In just under 120 minutes this mix provides you with a darkened corner of the dancefloor to call your own. A place where you can lower your head and vibe in the heady swirl of sound. A place where dance is pilgrimage and music our salvation. For a few precious hours we put our lives on hold so we can tend to the soul. Music is our church. We rise, we ebb, we triumph, we fall. How does one live in an age where living is at a premium? I don't know. I wish I had an answer.

Much peace & love and thank you for listening. I'll see y'all in the next sesh.

The Darsh Sessions #13: Discora Borealis

6 months later and over 100 lbs lighter (that's right, I've lost 100+ lbs!), The Darsh Sessions returns with its 14th installment: Not For The Faint Of Darsh. Taking inspiration from a recent November 2024 trip to the UK where I played my first ever B2B with The Captain Liam Spence (my brother!), this set unequivocally pushes the tempo and explores the higher BPMs of house, deep tech and disco. Hypnofunk basslines, pounding pianos, outrageous horns and slinky silk vocals are the order of the day, all served alongside a big honking slab of peak time Darshrageous energy. Please accept my apologies for any damaged caused by my attempt at ripping the roof off this mf. Sometimes you just need to travel where the tunes are taking you.

Enjoy the journey, everyone. Much peace & love to you all. See ya in the next sesh!

The Darsh Sessions #14: Not For The Faint Of Darsh

Just in time for February, The Darsh Sessions kicks off the early morning dumpster fire that is January 2025 with its oversized 15th installment: VIVA DARSH VEGAS!

Inspired by a recent trip to Las Vegas, I decided to go all in with the biggest, dumbest, most unapologetic Darsh Session yet! This 3hr behemoth is as enormous as the Sphere and as absurd as a fake Eiffel Tower towering over a theme park New York skyline. Think all-you-can-eat Piano House buffets, complimentary Nu-Disco chips with your Preferred Darsh Player's Club Card, high-stakes Indie Dance for the big table spenders, and low-stakes Funky House for the tight budget penny-slot crew. For the more seasoned listener, we're serving up Jackin House by the yard in collectible cups, 2 for 1 topless Tech House specials with purchase of an appetizer, and after hours Deep House weirdness for those with a penchant for powders and the neon sleaze.

So ante up, place your bets and get ready to winner winner chicken dinner, Darsh-style. Much peace & love, everyone. I'll catch y'all in the next sesh.
