Electronic jazz with breakbeat chops and hammond melodies and trumpet good times.

Intermittent Jazz Thing

Based in the outskirts of Chiba, I produce a wide range of tracks—from instrumental and abstract hip-hop to dark, minimal, and experimental beats.
Unbound by genre, I focus on groove, texture, and spatial atmosphere, building tracks daily in my home studio.

My musical influences include Green Assassin Dollar, Budamunk, Bugseed, DJ Krush, KREVA, and Mark Rae.

I began my career as a DJ in 1995 at the age of 17, initially drawn to deep, hypnotic techno.
Later, I became immersed in London’s underground, funk-driven tech house scene surrounding the WIGGLE movement, where I performed with a focus on minimal, swing-heavy grooves.

Today, I carry that sensibility into the realm of hip-hop, breakbeats, and leftfield rhythms—crafting instrumental works that explore the expressive power of space and restraint.

Artificial Disco is the alter ego of Daníel Sigurðsson, composer and trumpet player from Iceland. Dedicated to exploring everything electronic, the music ranges from jazzy drum and bass and wistful ambient techno to electronically enhanced funk.

Treat yourself to some synthetically derived, cybernetically infused, stereo-enhanced, super-saturated, electro-magnetic musical fantasies, and listen to some Artificial Disco.
