From P-Funk to Electro-Jazz, the wonderful Daniel Russel enjoys what is good in life. Easy grooves of slow funk and latino soul meet psychedelic pop vibes and off-beat rhythms. Best enjoyed under the disco-ball with a Negroni and good company.

Das Hotel Live

This was recorded in 2 parts, as a Thunder storm threatened the safety of the wooden rooftop club, the venue had to be evacuated for 30 minutes while the storm passed the city. When everyone was safe to return to the party I had to play The Beatles - Rain, a very special moment… "If the rain comes they run and hide their heads!"

Cosmic Boogie

Juno Review:

Operating in the shadowy no-man's-land between re-edits, remixes and original productions, DJ Kaos's Jolly Jams imprint rarely puts a foot wrong. Predictably, the label's latest missive - a two-track trip into dub disco/mid-tempo house territory from the combined talents of Danny Russell and Timothy Alexander - is quietly impressive. Opener "Let's Go (House Track Slower)" is particularly potent, offering a dubby, Idjut Boys style re-edit/remix fusion full of sleazy disco samples, looped spoken word snippets, crunchy clavinet lines and rubbery dub disco bass. The duo flips the script entirely on "Hoppers Rant (Acid Track)", pressing the button marked "dancefloor madness" via clattering drum machine percussion and wild TB-303 acid lines.

Here’s a selection of the records I played at The Loyal that day and a small taste of the sprit of event. Feel free to download and enjoy.

Manchester's @sprechenmusic release another couple of heavy duty dance floor bombs in the shape of Danny Russell and Ronald Christoph's One Two One EP. Both tracks have a distinct but very cool disco edge reworked perfectly to cross-over to a multitude of floors. Our premier today is lead track One Two One, which has deep dancefloor drive aplenty. Check out our review of the EP on LV online via the link below: https://levisiteuronline.com/music/lv-premier-danny-russell-roland-christoph-one-two-one-original-mix-2/

One Two One (Original Mix)

LV Premier - Danny Russell & Ronald Christoph - One Two One (Original Mix)

After a barnstorming, blistering debut with us on Sprechen, Danny Russell & Ronald Christoph return with a follow up of more shoulder jerking & body shuffling inducing selections of chopped up disco house grooves on 'The Love Rescue E.P.'

Disco edits done right are the order of the day here across these 3 tracks, Love Rescue is one for the double handclap and group sing-a-long crew with snappy horns & rapid guitar strums alongside some clever rearrangement by the guys which makes this a big number!

'You Can Do It' defo jumps out of the disco and into the house...specially selected 2 bar & 4 bar loops with a stomping kick drum and a dub delay drenched vocal break resulting in a straight up peak time floor filler that wears its Roulé influence firmly on its sleeve.

'Night Dancer' boards the train to Italy and goes straight to Baldelli's Cosmic Club in all its arp synth glory. Add to that some smarmy little synth stabs & various other dubbed out cuts here & there before a HUGE vocal breaks right through and cements this one as an absolute banger!

LV Mixtape 179 - Danny Russell [Paper Disco]

British born, and currently Berlin based DJ/producer Danny Russell has been in the game for over two decades - since ‘98.  He was first influenced by the sounds of his uncle, DJ Billy Caldwell, who launched the notorious Manchester underground Epping Walk after hours party, frequented by such music legends as New Order, DJ Sasha, The Happy Mondays, Mike Pickering, and The Stone Roses.  Coming up, Danny honed his skills within the Manchester underground dance music scene, regularly playing at some of the most famous venues such as Sankeys, The Music Box, The Attic and Zumar.  After moving to Berlin, he has continued to develop his sound, and played at some of the notable clubs such as Watergate, Suicide Circus, King Size, Kitkat club and Neue Heimat.  He also has expanded his gigs nationally including regularly playing in the US at clubs in NYC with a recent highlight being playing at the 50th Anniversary of Pride. 

Danny has also has been building his catalog as a producer with a string of successful releases, and a discography full of iconic imprints such as Defected, Paper Recordings, Jolly Jams, Midnight Riot, Berlin Bass Collective, Sprechen & Athens of The North and others. Beyond clubs and festivals, Danny has diversified his gigs by playing for some industry brand parties such as Native Instruments, worked as a sound designer and also worked as a post production engineer on various movies.

We had a chance to catch up with Danny to see how he has been doing, get an update on some recent projects, and talk about what the future looks like.  Check out the full interview at https://www.playdatesessions.com/mixes/030-danny-russell

Danny Russell  | Playdate Sessions 030

British Producer and DJ Danny Russell has a long standing love with the sound we call House.

Graduating from the school of ‚03 and the dance floor of Manchester’s legendary Sankeys Soap. He’s been steeped in dance music culture since those heady days –a digger and disco lover who went on to gain a degree in sound engineering and make his own music with impressive results.
  
With a reputation for creating disco-fried, deep house grooves that hit the sweet spot with dancers and club aficianados alike. Danny lives and works out of Berlin these days. 

Making notable releases for the likes of Defected who signed his 2018 hit ‘Watchin Out’ alongside Dirty Channels, turning it from a vinyl No.1 and Mixmag’s Tune of the Month, into a club monster and Spotify smash with well over 3 million plays. Picked up and played by taste-makers such as Dan Shake, Josh Wink and Giles Peterson and finding him new fans in Spiller, Sam Devine and Kevin Saunderson.

Danny’s ‘Love Rescue’ release on Sprechen was one of Craig Charles (BBC6 Music) best tracks of 2020 and included it in his 100 tunes of all time.

Musically, Danny covers everything from upfront disco edits to jacked-up house grooves and is signed to the likes of  Defected, Paper Recordings, Midnight Riot, Athens of the North and more. His hits have translated into gigs across the world including sets at the 50th Pride Anniversary in New York City, Word of Mouth in Ibiza, underground institution Pygmalion in Dublin and rooftop clubs in Havana, Cuba. And since moving to Berlin in 2012, he’s become a regular headliner at the city’s best clubs including Watergate, Renate, King Size and Neue Heimat.

He currently holds down three new Berlin residencies, and has upcoming international gigs as well. With more releases to come and a habit of creating big tunes that resonate long after they’ve been released, expect to hear a lot more from Danny Russell in the near future.
