A house/techno DJ turned instrumentalist and producer, he fuses psychedelic rock, Chicago house, synth-pop, and glitch inspirations into exhilarating soundscapes. Drawing from his past as an industrial fabricator, the music echoes a deep connection to problem solving and life on the road, manifesting in haunting, introspective beats. Driftpin's tracks are more than music – they're journeys of faith, family, and freedom, making Driftpin a standout in the chill-step scene.
