Darshan Ambient was a solo project of Mike Allison. If you want to read about Mike's extensive music career (especially 80s NYC bands) follow the link above. Allison left New York in 1987. He moved to San Francisco & began to make ambient electronic music independently of major record labels. He was heavily influenced by NSS faves Brian Eno & Bill Nelson. He chose the name Darshan, from a Sanskrit word meaning "divine vision", adding the word "Ambient" to distinguish his music from that of an existing band called Darshan. He started to record & release his own music in 1992.
Allison died January 9, 2020, aged 61, from cancer.
Here's one from 2002...
