About Darcy Torres
Darcy Torres biggest passion in life is music. His life's mission is to share his music with the rest of the world. Born in 1984 in the rough streets of Los Angeles(U.S.A), where his love for electronic dance music began at the early age of eight. He was exposed through the pulsing music heard at night during neighborhood house parties. He would search for that one sound that was so hard to find in his area. In junior high school he was known as the, "Techno kid", exposing many of his peers to the music. In high school, he learned how to mix with a family friends turntables also buying records whenever he was able to save enough. Finally at the age of 15, he made the major purchase of buying his DJ equipment. Darcy Torres has been spinning Electronic Dance Music for over ten years.

His musical roots explore a variety of genres which include: Salsa, Latin Jazz, Bossa Nova, Jazz and Samba.

November 18th, 2006, Darcy Torres to headline 2nd area of Pimp My Rave (Pimp My Rave in Los Angeles brought to you by: Southern California Connections. visit www.MySpace.com/SoCalConnections for more event info)
Pimps and Ravers Damn, who knew the pre-Thanksgiving zone was going to be such a head-trip of mega-parties? Surprisingly the deep fall is filling out to be a serious menu of celebratory weekend options. Speaking of which, there is a new special in the house: Pimp My Rave. Brought to you by the bangers at Southern California Connections, this pimp rave can brag a heavy artist roster, a fresh to-be-announced Los Angeles warehouse location, and if you buy five tickets, you get one for free. How sick is that? The date is Saturday, November 18th, and the party rolls for nine hours. Technically this a “thank you” party for SCC's Fruity-Loops bash from mid-October, but come out to this regardless of motive. Live it up – or you won't be able to live it down.So, among Pimp My Rave's sweet draws is a very “phat” performer line-up, which we're going to drop right now. In Area One (specialty is “big pimpin' SCC style"): Nicholas Bennison, SD-F1 &Terror, Jason Splat, S.N.I.P.A.H. Squad, Self Destruct, Matt Dat Dat, Doublestaxxx & Narayan, Alexander and Dennis Moore, Deacon, and Argon One. Oh, and on the microphones will be MC Oozi and Werd MC. Then, in Area Two, expect (specialy is “tricks and hoes”): Darcy Torres, DJ X Phactor, Senneca, Universe & Minaya, Immortal, DJ Wires, Forsaken, Renegade, DNC, and Book Me (pretty literal, right?). Allegedly there will be two more whole areas of “rave insanity,” but the acts are under wraps for now. Expect surprises.Among the reasons this party will be especially “pimp” is the fact that Southern California Connections will be tricking the warehouse out with big bass sound systems, custom video projections, and over 20 television screens with dual 14 foot screens, plus lots of fancy DJ lighting. Also key to the equation is the “remember to bring” list SCC is rocking: “pimp rave gear, good vibes, Mickey Mouse hands, Cat In The Hat hats, overalls, raver outfits, raver toys, and most importantly…your friends…” How classic is that? However, strictly forbidden are “weapons, drugs, wannabes, and fakers of the funk.” Straight up. Why fake? In their words: “Don't do it! Just live it!” Hell yes.
