About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4DARCOSAN (Aikolab/Vienna Scientists recordings, RCA Victor N.Y.) Since the mid nineties Darcosan´s heavy percussion led Drum&Breakz sets have been a musical mainstay of the viennese scene - rocking the likes of Vienna´s prime hang outs aka the Flex, MQ Ovalhalle & Café Leopold(Resident), Volksgarten, WUK, Roxy, etc...and electrifying hordes of electronic enthusiasts. Although his dad´s music of choice evolved around classical sixties acts like Pink Floyd, James Brown, the Beatles and the Rolling Stones he initiated the vinyl collection of his son with electronic pioneers like Kraftwerk and Jean-Michel Jarre, setting the ideal foundation for an electronic minded eclectic. At the age of 13 - again through his father´s initation - he took up drumming, playing in a local pop group for the next couple of years. After the band´s split up in 1986, Darcosan traded his drumset for a pair of Technics 1210´s, and started to DJ 1992, in the flourishing Techno and Tribal scene. Around 96 - already posessing a massive reputation for his finley crafted DJ sets - he discovered Drum&Bass, a music that payed even more dues to his percussive background and became one of vienna´s prime leaders in the new field. 1997 saw the release of his first production entitled "Babe Factor" on Vienna Scientists I (Col.492829-1) which was followed by his collaborational Project “Funk on Pot” with Alex Deutsch(A Family Affair/Various Artists VIE 009CD und A Family Affair/CUTS VIE 008/12“Maxi-Single in autumn 2000) Darcosan’s new Aikolab soundrecording Studio based in Museumsquartier 21-Electric Avenue is a new platform for DJ & Producer workshops, as well as a production studio for commercial jingles, clubtunes,Rmx’s & movie soundtracks,DISCOGRAPHIEDARCOSAN / Exclusive Tracks Babe Factor – Vienna Scientists I / Various Artists (Sony Music/Austria/1998) 2LP/CD Got Something-Vienna Scientists IV / Various Artists (Universal/Austria/2004)2LP/CD Villa Verde – Rhythmic Fission-Classical Electronica / Various Artists /RCA/Victor Group) CD Inspired by “Arabasque” original theme by Claude Debussy (Release in Spring 2004)DARCOSAN & ALEXDRUM / Exclusive Tracks Funk On Pot – A Family Affair / Various Artists (Vienna Scientists/2001) CD Funk On Pot – A Family Affair-CUTS (Vienna Scientists/2001) 12” Maxi-Single Secrets – 3 Minutes with Mark Murphy / (Mouth to Mouth/Universal 2002) Theater Soundtrack for Aktionstheater Ensemble ( Shakespeare’s The Storm & The Brokers Opera)DARCOSAN – Remixes Tritsch Tratsch Polka – Hyper Strauss / Vienna Remixes (Nightcomm Rec./Universal/1999) 2LP/CD SLOTCATCHER/ Vol.1 – Changes (Darcosan Hot Bird Mix) (Vienna Scientists/2003) 12”Maxi-Single/CD Maxi-Single (Release in Spring 2003), Shanti Roots Rmx with Brotha Culture as Rhythm Agenda aka Darcosan & Philipp van het Veld (release in May 2006)DARCOSAN DJ Style’s / The Soul of afro-latin rhythm meets futuristic techno-funk2Step/Breakbeat/ Nu Skool Breaks/ Grime, Dubstep, House influenced by Afro & Brasil Elements, Minimal TechElectroHouse Ambient,Downbeat, NuJazz Fusion, Drum`n`Bass, R n’ B/ Hip Hop, RaggaDARCOSAN - Deejaying/Clubs & Events CLUB MEIEREI-vienna/a DUB CLUB-FLEX-vienna/a ch DUB CLUB-st.gallen/ch THEATRO-graz/a CONRAD SOHM-Dornbirn/a LOFT-Salzburg/a JAZZHAUS-freiburg/d OSTPARKSTRASSE-frankfurt/d LOUNGE CLUB-hamburg/d ROTER SALON-berlin/d VOXXX-chemnitz/d KOSMOPHON-leipzig/d FILMHAUS-cologne/d ATOMIC CAFE-munich/d CASINO DE PARIS- nürnberg /d JOE'S BAR-new york/usa L’OSOSPHERE- straßbourg /f LE FONQE- stuttgart /d OFFSET-st.gallen/ch KAUFLEUTEN- zürich /ch SUPERSONIC-vienna/a HUSTLER-vienna/a and many more,……..
