For those of you who keep in contact with that minimal side to EDM, you will all know the incredible producer, who is dominating the scene, Daniel Portman! For those of you who don't know him, allow me to introduce you to an incredible talent right here. Daniel Portman was born and raised in the suburbs of Zurich, Switzerland. He fell in love with electronic music at a very young age and at first Daniel started to test his musical abilities on an Akai2000 sampler and an old sequencer. During the Mid 2000s, his first EP “Backside / Evolution” was released on Unreleased Digital. Followed by the EP “I never sleep”. Daniel released tracks on multiple labels, such as Harem Records, Big & Dirty, Armada, AnjunaDeep, PinkStar Records and of course, his own label, Unreleased Digital. Rapidly he gained a big base of fans from all corners of the world, and his agenda got fully booked with DJ gigs on all continents, resulting in performances in front of 10,000's of people!
Daniel is known for his incredibly unique style in house music, which can be described as a mixture of progressive house and techno. I would be able to recognise a Daniel Portman production anywhere. His melodies are so incredibly unique and catchy at the same time. As a result, his productions regularly fill the top positions of Beatport’s Top 100 chart and are fast becoming staples for DJs everywhere. Make sure you keep an eye on this incredible producer, and be sure to check out some of his releases below! Enjoy!
