Darren Tate has been a pivotal artist in dance music for over twenty years. In 2022, the UK Top 10 charting producer joined forces with Above & Beyond’s Jono Grant to form JODA. Released on Anjunabeats, their self-titled debut album has since seen over 10 million combined streams.

He is also the owner of Mondo Records UK and a successful composer; in 2022, he scored the soundtrack for the IMAX feature film ‘The Last Glaciers’ with Above & Beyond.
Darren got off to a flying start this year by joining forces with trance titan Solarstone and established vocalist Julie Scott on ‘A Long Way From Home’, a single that earned support from Nicole Moudaber, ANNA, Joris Voorn, Hernán Cattáneo, Carl Craig, Nora En Pure and more. He followed that up with ‘Adrift’, which saw spins from the likes of Ben Malone, Ferry Corsten, Don Diablo, Ruben De Ronde, and The Thrillseekers.

[item value="10"] Darren Tate & Sxcha - Flashing Lights[/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Darren Tate is an exceptional artist with unforgettable classics under his belt managing to float in and out of various styles with great ease and superb finesse with eclectic sounds and high quality standards. The announcement of his album on Anjunabeats is superb news and the first two singles, his epic collaboration with Solarstone and now the new single with Sxcha called Flashing Lights. This is another little precious jewel in music collection with 122 BPM progressive beauty with pulsating deep basslines, thumping drums, punchy kicks and excellent floating dark synths on top that match perfectly the dark dreamy moody Sxcha vocals. It gives you the impression that you are upon a nice boat and you travel with vicious rough waters towards the final destination that is the full discovery of your inner-self. It works as dancefloor material with its relentless build up but also as nice starter to any deep progressive sets and home listening tripping out tunes. #PureGold Love iT [/content]
