>> John Dali
bio: Irish producer from the London scene, JOHN DALY has been DJing and playing live music around Europe for about 13 years, with recent appearances at Panorama Bar in Berlin, Zukunft in Zurich and Sugar Factory in Amsterdam at ADE 2008. He also founded his own label, Feel Music, in 2005. John Daly has quickly proven to be one of the most promising new producers to emerge over the 18 months. The young Irishman’s productions are as deep and elemental as they are anachronistic, recalling a simpler era of electronic music. His stylistic ties to electronic music’s roots are what set him apart from his deep-house contemporaries, as his tunes bear the warm and full-bodied mark of analog synths VSTs still struggle to properly emulate. So far this year he’s released a double LP on Plak rounding up his singles for the label and the debut single for International Records Recordings, Areal’s new sub-label. The “Atlantis EP,” Daly’s third for Wave Music, splits the difference between deep-house movers and serene electronic numbers, and he has just released his first full length album, Sea & Sky on Wave Music.
