this has been played so many times I had to find it on my new account here.   LOVE THIS AND YOU Merry Christmas Darling

Rudolph and Roxanne is pure genius!!  YES!!!!

so much of it is pure genius *Love you Zack* Michael Jackson/Lennon and the Carpenter mix got me deep

This Lennon/Jackson 5 mashup was amazeballs!

Can't believe I'm just discovering this after being up for 13 years and knowing you for longer.  I love building my alternative Holiday tunes.  This is the Best!  Merry Christmas and Happy HolyDAZE!

It's Baking Day and this SantaMash is the perfect backdrop for all of the other goodies going on in my house right now. :)

song will forever and always remind me of Home Alone 

Holidaze

What's up you ghouls?

So it's been a hot minute since I dropped a mix but I have been back into DJ'ing again and thought there was no better time to put something a little nasty for Halloween. 

Creep beats, growly bass, weird screeches and a good dose of cheeky horror samples. Hope you creeps enjoy.

"10 years of Bliss Coast and the journey goes on. Each year has been a monumental effort and my long-term goal to achieve 10 volumes comes to completion with the release of Muse & Marvel. Over the years many fans have told me how much they still love volume 1, Grass & Gospel. So to round out the series I decided to revisit the year one theme and produce another set of bluegrass and gospel songs refreshed for the festival dancefloor and maximum smiles. It was such a pleasure to perform this along side my biggest supporter and wife Rebecca. Thanks to everyone who joined us for that wonderful experience and to everyone beyond listening now. Much love!"

Let's Have A Dance About It

If you journey far into the mountains of Northern California, through the majestic redwoods and follow the Eel River northward, you'll find a very special gathering of beautiful friends and family. Every year we gather to dance under the trees, swim in the river and reconnect with each other at the Northern Nights Music Festival. I have been blessed to be one of the longest-running booked DJ's at this festival over the years. It's my honor to play for my friends and I'm happy to share one of my most recent sets with you now. Every year I play at the Madrone Camp Stage to my close friends, cannabis lovers and Skinny Kitty family.

Please enjoy my 2+ hour recording my 2023 Madrone Camp Stage. This mix strays away from my beloved mashups and remixes and dives deep into my love for hip-hop, bass and trap jams. Turn up the subs on this one!

Big shout-out to my dear friend Ivy - Soul Seed - for mastering support. Check out here SoundCloud and support up-and-coming artists: https://soundcloud.com/soul-seed

This one's for all you ho ho ho's out there. Welcome to volume 2 of the SantaMash series. Let's get jolly, y'all! It's my sincere hope that this warms your chestnuts while bringing you comfort and joy for the holidays. If typical Christmas music makes you feel like you've got an eggnog hangover, this unique mix of mashup and remixes should shine out of the masses like a red-nosed reindeer. May we have whirrled peas and goodwill, dear friends. Yule have fun with this one, I'm sure.

Claus & Effects - DJ Zack Darling

It was such an honour to be invited back to Basscoast to perform for a second year in a row - an invitation thats importance was not lost on me. A lot of DJ's shy away from day time sets, but to me, playing in the day and killing it is a hallmark of a good DJ. You can't go too hard or it won't fit the vibe, but if you don't go hard enough it can be boring. You really have walk a fine line. So shout out all DJ's who can play at all times of night and day, and the producers making the music and remixes that can fit a dance floor or a car ride home from the festival.

This years theme being "Reflection" I wanted to present an accurate portrayal stylistically of my last ten years as a DJ. Ranging the full spectrum of BPM and leaving to no stone unturned, utilizing new techniques and technology that only became available to me this year, and trying things on stage I've never tried before, I am very proud to present my set from Basscoast 2024 at the Cabin Stage on Saturday afternoon. If you were there, I hope this brings you back to a happy place, and if this is your first time hearing it, I hope you enjoy.

Sincerely,

Civillian
