About Me

Darren Sangita is a musical artist & producer.
Since 1994 I have sought to unite music and culture by working with International Classical, Indigenous Musicians and technological wizards of the aural arts. I have worked with musicians and artists from Iran, Morocco, India, Australia, Venezuela, Turkey and Syria...
As label manager for Youth's legendary Dragonfly Records in the 90's I was blessed enough to work with some of the electronic music pioneers such as Hallucinogen, Shpongle, System 7 & The Orb.
As a composer, musician, producer, DJ, sound engineer and event host & promoter, my musical output covers a variety of styles but all with a common thread, a spiritually uplifting, effervescent electroacoustica!
My production works include...
Noodreem
Sangita Sadhus
Aetherix
Cosmic Jam
and co-production with Spectralite
As a musical artist my work can be heard on Sangita Sounds, Interchill, Liquid Sound Design and Organic Records. I feature on compilations with such luminaries as Greg Hunter, Adham Shaikh, Jah Wobble, Suns of Arqa, Eat Static and Thievery Corporation .
More recently I have been busy manifesting a new evolutionary thread of electroacoustic spiritual sound journeys with the inimitable Greg Hunter. We first met at Butterfly Studios in 1994 and have come together to produce this groundbreaking new symphonic ambience....Spectralite. This is now available for download :-
Spectralite - Temple of Stars (omega.v1)
I am the founder of Sangita Sounds which is an collective of like minded individuals who are dedicated to co-creating a peaceful future of human unity through the power of Music and the Arts since 2000.
In the past decade I have made efforts to work with international musicians and particularly spend time recording and producing full length CD's for their use as promotional or commercial CD's. This has been a beautiful journey me and I give thanks for the chance to work and play with music in their presence
Some work has been pure classical or folk and with other musicians we have worked together to create new spiritual fusion musics. You can enjoy a sample of their music though the myspace pages that I have created for all the following musicians.
Sukhdev Mishra - Hindustani Classical - India
Ajit Pandaye - Hindustani Classical - India
Ranajit Sengupta - Hindustani Classical - India
Sandip Ghosh - Hindustani Classical - India
Shirin Sengupta - Hindustani Classical - India

As a lover of the morphological dance that we find ourselves in, I like to keep an eye on the infinite.
Check out my musical adventures in India on my Blog... DARREN SANGITA - MUSICAL PILGRIM
In the near future you can expect a kaleidoscopic spiritually soaked long player in the form of ASHIRVAD A co-production with Mathura Das from the Bindoo Babas. Our musical pilgrimage took us along the path of the Sacred river Ganges and we look forward to sharing this epic adventure with you in the coming months.
