Daniel Brandt has been involved in music for a long time. After playing drums and piano from an early age in several jazz, rock and pop bands and classical orchestras he focused more and more on electronic music. He played drums in the german drum & bass band “Die Spielwiese” from 2002 until 2006.
Afterwards Daniel started two new live and production projects: ”The Free Electric Band” focused on minimal techno and electro with a stunning live-dance-show and “Scott” a duet with his friend Jan Brauer. Together they play and produce house and jazzy techno with releases on My Best Friend ltd. (Traum Schallplatten), Fluid Ounce and their own label Doppelschall.
Daniel has also taken part in the Red Bull Music Academy 2006 in Melbourne, where he worked together with several internation musicians like Dj Zinc, The Mizell Brothers, Aloe Blacc and many others. As a result of the Academy many collaborations with other participants were started. One of the collaborations resulted in the band “Haphazard” who will soon start to release a series of 7? records on London’s Burnt Progress Label.
He has joined forces with Paul Frick (Kalk Pets) and Jan Brauer from Scott to start a new project focused on a mixture between modern classical and techno music at the end of 2008. The trio called “Brandt Brauer Frick” released their debut EP on Tartelet Records from Copenhagen in early 2009.
Besides that Daniel is deejaying for more than 6 years all around the world having played at many clubs such as Bar 25 (Berlin), Honkytonks (Melbourne), The Butter Factory (Singapore), Salmon & Compass (London), Propaganda (Moscow) and Watergate (Berlin), just to name a few.
His sound is a mixture between Old School House, Techno and Minimal House and always reflect his experiences as a live musician.
