SUMMER SOL IX

Preview - ADWAS , Tony L Issac  - Massar [ Sol Selectas ]

I love every opportunity to play an emerging downtempo set. Patiently crusading through a series of tribal global rhythms, this set truly sets the tone for establishing the progression of the evening. As the sun sets, and the fire illuminates... This is an excerpt from the full set, I hope you enjoy this steady journey.

DARIUS - LIVE: SPRING PRIVATE ROOFTOP DINING EXPERIENCE 2024

It's been a while, but I'm back with some heat to play.  I've been slowly collecting some favorites this Summer, and am honored to share them with you!  
I absolutely love Wa Hlala by my Brother, LMichael, who features the beautiful vocalist Nomvula (out now on Cabeau Music).  I'm also blown away by my good friend, Nash La Musica's, rendition of Move and the up-and-coming Taarof Adder, who smashed the Asanda remix.  Bruno Robles has a new track coming soon on Cabeau Music - he's making some hot ones, including Ayenne featured here.
Shimza's Club Mix of Places and Knight Warriors, Soulic M, and Olwethu N's Emazulwini are incredible masterpieces of sound.  I'm also loving Ian Kenzof's vibe.
Enjoy!

DARIUS : Live at VERTICAL Spring Kick-Off 2025 Opening Set

Recorded live under the full moon at Moontribe, April 2025 — this 2-hour opening set is a deep journey through tribal organic house and playatech. The Mojave Desert came alive with rhythm, spirit, and connection as the moon cast its light over a gathering of kindred souls. I'm deeply honored to be part of this tribe and to contribute to the magic we create together.
