Dark Vocals

Prolific producer, eminent DJ, and Queens native Ari El continues to set the underground ablaze. A master of mood, rhythm, and relentless drive, Ari has carved out an undeniable legacy in the world of techno — not just playing it, but living it. With deep roots in the golden era of NYC house music and shaped by dancefloor giants like Junior Vasquez, Victor Calderone, and Danny Tenaglia, Ari’s journey has evolved into a full-circle phenomenon, spinning alongside the very legends who first inspired him.

Since launching his own imprint Dark Vocals in 2019, Ari has become a creative force entirely on his own terms — releasing a string of hard-hitting, genre-defining tracks that have rocked dance floors across the globe. His catalog under the Dark Vocals label is a testament to his vision: raw, unapologetic techno made for the heads.

From Output to Club Space, Treehouse to Winter Music Conference, and far beyond to Colombia, Costa Rica, LA, and Atlanta — Ari’s signature sound continues to reverberate across the planet. His Unity Records EP “Thrill” became a breakout hit, receiving plays from titans like Chris Liebing and Adam Beyer, further cementing his place in the upper echelon of the global techno scene.

In 2025, Ari El is undisputed. Critically acclaimed. Still setting the tone with his legendary branded events, Dark Vocals and Feel It, both of which have earned cult status and reshaped the late-night techno landscape in NYC. Among the heaviest of heavyweights, he remains a street-certified legend—a torchbearer for raw, unfiltered nightlife energy.

His sound is not just heard — it’s felt. Deep.
