Darren Styles has been djing and producing for over 20 years. Inspired by the Rave sound of the early nineties, he began his career in 1994. Teaming up with Paul Force, Force & Styles released a string of underground tracks including Pretty Green Eyes and Heart Of Gold which was later re-worked and went on to be huge chart hits with Pretty Green Eyes going in at No. 2 in the UK singles chart and selling over 250,000 copies. Force & Styles were also the first UK Hardcore act to do the Essential mix for Pete Tong on Radio 1.
Continuing to write, produce and DJ, Darren found himself mixing one of the three CD Clubland X-Treme album series every year for the past 10 years selling in excess of 1 million copies combined.
In 2013 Darren was the first UK Hardcore artist to play EDC Las Vegas on the Basscon Stage, coining it as possibly the most pivotal DJ set of his career to date. Darren has played the Basscon stage at EDCLV every year since.
With Darren’s DJing continuing to take him across the UK, the US and worldwide and his producing seeing him work alongside some of the biggest names in UK Hardcore and EDM who knows what else is in store for Darren as he flies the flag for the harder styles of dance music.
