AMBIENTELECTROJAZZSYNTHPROGCOSMICIMPROV

A true world citizen, Daniel grew up absorbing a diversity of European cultures and languages. The result is a multi-layered, multi-cultural exploration of the emotional and spiritual complexities of life. A sonic magic-realism.


With a passion for the Rhodes electric piano, analogue synths and hooked on all things electronic, Daniel’s sound is a unique combination of his early influences (70s jazz-rock, Krautrock cosmic synths, ECM label jazz, Motown soul and West-coast rock) as well as more experimental ambient electronic minimalism. A blend of electronic experimentation and jazz-inspired improvisation.


He is the founder of legendary experimental label Sargasso and has released over 25 solo albums, with his bands Mysteries Of The Revolution and Echo Engine, as well as long-term collaborator Colin Bass (Camel). Biro has also worked extensively as a media composer and sound designer for award-winning films, TV documentaries, theatre, dance productions and art installations.

"Daniel Biro brings together three of the greatest progressive music traditions: Berlin-style electronics, prog rock synths and jazz fusion keyboards... he develops transfixing electronic sequences inspired by early Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze and other iconic German artists. Additionally, Biro creates awe-inspiring atmospheres and tops it off with memorable synth solos and his signature Rhodes electric piano jazz-rock work." Progressive Rock Central

“So beautifully crafted it already sounds like a classic. I love it.” Russell Jones
