Hello Steemians, my name is Arash a.k.a. darqub and a make music.

I am an artist situated in Germany. I have been working as a photographer as well as a multimedia designer. Still, my passion for good sound has drove me to write and produce genre-independant music. My main objective in all my work is to manifest a creative, passionate mindset that has led me on a journey throughout all possible means of artistic, creative expression.

Around 2002 I began producing beats. While working predominately in a multimedia and webdesign orientated environment over the last few years, I never stopped writing.

In 2012, my passion for production was inevitably retriggered while I was re-exploring guitar-based music. I was intrigued by the distinct sound of the instrument like never before. At the same time, a friend of mine who had been a performer/producer of black music most of his life, became annoyed with limitations in digital and sample-based production while trying to fuse synthesis with the sound of real instruments.

Thus, we started playing guitars and basses and basically whatever should be played by a real instrument, melting it with whatever analog/digital sound is to be found out there. We’ve been hooked on this mindset ever since. This site is nothing but a documentary about a journey through music and whatever artistic expression is found to transport it.
