Rising producer/DJ and likable human Steve Darko is a music nut from the underground scene in Boston. Following a short stint producing hip-hop beats and what he calls “shitty instrumental mixtapes,” he made the eventual jump to the dance floor after discovering electronic music. Today, Darko owes his chunky, bass-forward style to his musical upbringing, sonic curiosity and ever-expanding assemblage of analog gear. Darko’s sound lives at the intersection of house and techno, where bouncy bass and technical grace live in sonic harmony.
