Cerca

[Khalum Zilam] puts aside Darren's loop-based, ambient guitar work for arcadian drone, acoustic fingerstyle, and a foggy sense of space. I'm here for the Jeweled Antler revival.”
Lars Gotrich
A gorgeous album [Mod Pink Relic] of ambient guitars, tape loops and whatnot...giving me really nice vintage Kranky vibes.”
Philip Sherburne

Cerca is the project of Darren H., New York-based instrumentalist.

After the end of Charlottesville VA’s post-punk favorites Bucks and Gallants, Darren moved to New York, built a home studio, and began a solo project of vivid instrumental music that explores imaginary places and spaces with spaghetti western guitars and murky tape experiments lighting the way.

The eighth Cerca release (“Pole Star Antenna”) is due out in Winter 2023.
