jay daniel: ssd
Francisco Espregueira
Over the past years Jay Daniel moved from being one of the most promising producers and DJ’s hailing from Detroit to being an established name in the city’s endless array of heroes in the electronic music scene. He will, undoubtedly, be heard and praised often in this next decade. His latest EP entitled SSD, first released back in February only in digital format, will be available in vinyl around the month of August. Daniel showcases a stronger knack for melody than ever before, never failing to deliver a sound that is ‘his’, relying on the tension between billowy synth chords and jittery, lo-fi drums.
Dreamy, soulful and energetic, SSD is masterfully put together by Jay Daniel - exploring sharp synth leads and intricate drum programming. Four spacious tracks that show the Detroit artist in the midst of a creative breakthrough, following on a excellent discography that has so much to explore. Via Watusi High, SSD vinyls will ship out on or around August 21st. Jay Daniel continues to evolve as a singular artist.
