Biography

It all started in the 70’s when DJ DarkGift (Shawn P. Cosgrove) attended grammar school in Carlstadt, New Jersey, a small suburb outside of New York City, he picked up playing the drums in the 4th Grade and the rest was history. 

A self taught drummer and guitarist, he has played with several bands including Radon, Taistyfish and Funch, which later became Nerve Tonic after his departure. His passion for music keeps him seeking the next big thing and totally enjoys playing as well as sharing or opening people up to new and awesome music. 

His tastes are across the board from new age to death metal and everything in-between. His interest in Radio has always there since the first days of listening to the Howard Stern show on New York radio and like Howard, takes a more comical and sadistic approach to most things in life. It’s all about having fun.

Aside from being on the air, Shawn is a volunteer firefighter, a self taught graphic artist and web designer among other things, A Jack of All Trades/Master of None...!!!

Michael Presti aka DJ RTFX: Owner/Director/On-Air Talent at NeueRegel Radio.com states, "In years to come you will read of people who were pioneers in internet radio. This is the man you will see in the picture next to it. Originally one of the co-founders of MindScape Radio and the Creator of the famed DarkGift Radio, Shawn aka DJ DarkGift is a talent unsurpassed in radio. His dry sense of humor combined with his smooth, no-bull attitude makes him one of the best DJ's either on the internet or terrestrial radio. RTFX credits him with 
being the DJ he listened to as a creative reference to develop his own style. A 
master at information technology and computer hardware, his DarkGift Radio 
Studios are second to none on the airwaves Just one listen to his shows and you 
will Understand and Believe in the Power of DJ DarkGift." 


Tim Curry - Founding Guitarist of The Crüxshadows states, "One of the problems is that there are no more DJ "curators" anymore as everyone wants to be a DJ and just play the hits. Too many DJ's in the "Dark Music" scene are concerned more about their floor and not bringing the "New" good stuff like they used to do. Nearly all of my exposure to this music was at a club, by a DJ who had sought it out and brought it to the club to spin, or through college radio, where they USED to do exactly what you are doing now. So, to find you is a rare and pleasant exception! Thank you for being a real DJ!"
