Darren was born on November 5th, 1983. Shortly thereafter, he was held upside down and smacked on the bottom, letting out what would be the first in a long line of epic wails.

At twelve years old he picked up his first guitar and began writing rock songs and playing in a long line of bands.

Darren produced his first critically acclaimed rock album while in high school. While still in college, Darren received a Telly Award for his composition “Cullinary Excitement,” and began composing for TV. In 2007 he received his BA from NYU’s Gallatin School. In 2008, three of his songs were featured in the film, “The Adventures of Food Boy” starring Lucas Grabeel (High School Musical). In 2009 he began working in video games, assuming the role of lead audio designer for SF Bay Area start-up, Supergiant Games, and independently authoring songs for the Rock Band Network.

    It's been an amazing experience listening to Bastion's OST, even though I haven't played the game.
