Dan has had a string of critically acclaimed releases on Pets Recordings, Dirtybird, Hypercolour, Futureboogie and Crosstown Rebels.[10] He has also released remixes for a broad selection of labels, giving his distinctive take on tracks by the likes of Adam F, Jamie Jones, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Chicken Lips, X-Press 2 and Four Tet.[11]
