Born and raised in Los Angeles, CA, DARIUS is truly the definition of renaissance man. A child of the earth, channeling the extended universe to influence original productions, adventurous progressive mixes, and fuel an overall creative perspective. Years of development and a pursuit of craft mastery have resulted in the formation of the VERTICAL event brand, as well as the music label DigitaLiving Music. As a DJ and producer, his musical style is cemented in progressive, tribal, afro house rhythms, and spans the gamut from global ethnic harmonic soul that traverses the sands of infinite future landscapes. As a natural storyteller, his DJ sets are always adventurous, featuring lush sonic colour that will inject the soul with inspiration, drive, emotion, and a natural cosmic connectivity with our organic indigenous roots in tandem with our prospective futurism. On one hand we have a designer, DJ, media producer, amateur chef, and music producer. On the other, we have an individual who's as passionate about the social climate of his city of origin as he is about all things creative. Someone with an equal concern for aesthetic and function. Music enthusiast. Motorsports fan. Foodie. Modernist. Self-taught creator. Los Angeles native. Modern Male. Born with an interest in the arts from just about every discipline, his early beginnings were filled with an assortment of exploration into everything from tinkering with drum machines and synthesizers, to sketching and drawing comic book-styled art. The son of composer and musician Nate Morgan, his exposure to, and interest in a broad spectrum of genre played a pivotal role in significantly impacting his approach to sound and audio production in the years to follow. His sensibilities towards the world of modern architecture and interior design are undoubtedly the result of seasoning from a mother whose musings with interior decorating were always at the fore in the home. Fast forward to young adulthood when the world of digital art was introduced, and a reinvigorated element of interest was now a part of the mix. Teenage years saw the introduction to beat blending and mixing on Technics 1200's, and a love affair was forever cemented. It wouldn't be long until DARIUS began to push his abilities musically and visually even further. Partnerships with fellow DJ's progressed into event promotions which produced everything from underground warehouse events, to weekend-long dance events in the Mojave desert. DARIUS has shared the stage with prominent fellow DJs such as Jamie Thinnes, David Montoya, Yaw Appiah, Zack Hill, Mark De Clive Lowe, J-Boogie, Beau Sebastian, and many more.
