New EP from Dan van Daan: For Monika. Five chillout-jazzy tracks
Dan Van Daan is an art figure: It all started with a computer game: Beach Life. The soundtrack is outstanding; especially Pacific Memories by Fenomenon. This piece is based on only two chords. But it has strong harmonies, brilliant / jazzy guitar solos and strong melodies.
The idea came up to adopt this concept and to create an own version of it. Because of the only to chord based harmonic structure, we call this style Dyade (means duality). So the debut album is called Dyade. Dan Van Daan and his work is a tribute to Fenomenon and the other acts of sophisticated lounge music.
As home and residence Dan Van Daan serves the island: Dyade Island. Of course, a prototype of the Caribbean, Balearic or Canarian holiday island and purely finctional. The island can be explored on the websites of Dan Van Daan.
