Dan is a house DJ by pure passion.  His style has been heavily influenced by the US New York scene, where he mixes up filtered disco samples (and re-edited originals) with soulful house and a lot funky breaks.  His biggest inspiration is Kenny Dope Gonzales, and others include Louie Vega, (Masters At Work), Kerri Chandler, Dimitri from Paris, Joey Negro, DJ Spen, Karizma & Armand Van Helden.

Despite his young age, Dan holds a great track record of clubs that include the top end of the club guide in London: Fabric, Pacha, The Cross, The End, Lime Light, The Rocket Complex, Nylon and Sugar Reef.  Besides working with the biggest nightclubs, he also keeps his hands and ears busy with corporate clients, catering to them in high society venues such as the Royal Albert Hall, Royal Society of Arts, Grosvenor House and Noble Rot.

When off the decks, he’s in the studio busy with all sorts off work.  The back-end work of the music industry has paid off for him after working with DJs and Producers including Pete Tong, Norman Cook (Fatboy Slim), Seb Fontaine, Trevor Nelson, Gilles Peterson, and the Chemical Brothers.

Outisde of the UK he has made solid coverage of Hong Kong, Sydney and even made an appearance at Euro Disney in Paris.  Now based in Hong Kong, Tai Pan Dan is set to push out the funkier sounds of house music at prominent venues, starting with a new mid-week residency with fellow DJ Arun R at Aqua Spirit – one of the world’s most exclusive lounges.
