About Dan Van Daan
Hello, this is Dan Van Daan,
it all startet with a video-game: Beach Life. I loved the soundtrack. Especially Pacific Memories from Fenomenon. So I bought the complete album and played it all the time - what a nice summer.
I regocnized early the special thing with this music: All tracks on Pacific Memories are working with only two different chords. Nevertheless, they sound very musical, lounging and brilliant. Strong harmonies, jazzy guitar-solos, groovy beats and a dense atmosphere of musicality and vacation poured out of my loudspeakers. I always was a producer so I decided to honor this style of music and try to do this on my own; and here we are.
The work (mostly) of Dan Van Daan is a tribute to Fenomenon and the other acts of sophisticated lounge music.
And why is my debut-album called Dyade? Dyad(e) is a fixed term in biology, music, literatrue, sociology, math and other departments. It means two: a set of two things... Fits fine, right? We here call this style of lounge-music dyade.
In spring/summer 2019 we will release a whole album with lounge-tracks like Summerbreeze and Night On Beach but some tracks will be house-tracks. I'll keep you informed here and on my Facebook-page, on Instagram and Twitter.
Please follow me on Facebook (leave an oldfashiond Facebook-Like), Spotify or Spotify-Playlist (a constantly updated playlist of sophisticated lounge music).
Have a nice summer!
