At only 18 years of age, rising Italian electronic music producer and DJ Danko (a.k.a. Samuel Gori) has already proven himself ‘one to watch’. Supported by the likes of Tiesto, Alan Walker, and Hardwell and releasing on legendary imprints including Astralwerks, Dharma and Spinnin’ Records, the teenager increasingly tours the world and features in the set lists of the planet’s biggest superstar DJs. 

Signing his debut single ‘Savior’ to Time Records in 2017, Danko soon followed up on his initial promise, releasing the Drop collaboration ‘I’ll Wait For You’ on Sony Germany, ‘Runaway’ on Knightvision Rec, ‘Hit Me Up’ on Astralwerks, ‘I’m So Excited’, again with Drop, on Kontor Records, and cementing his relationship with both Spinnin’ Records and the KSHMR imprint Dharma with the 2018 Marnik co-production ‘Hymn’, his 2019 solo hit ‘Kalimba’ and his huge remix of KSHMR’s original hit ‘My Best Life’. 

For Danko, 2019 was a whirl -  with performances at Tomorrowland, Black Sheep Festival, Ultra Europe, Spring Break Island and more. The youngster looks likely to further establish himself as one of Europe’s most exciting talents rising through the ranks. So far, Danko kicked off 2020 strong with his release ‘Pump It Up’ on Future House Music, one of the hottest upcoming indie electronic music labels of our generation! And since Danko is undoubtedly  one of the most promising talents in the electronic music scene, it’s no surprise a release on Dharma is next up - as Danko has already been on KSHMR’s radar for awhile now  (including in 2019 when KSHMR  handpicked Danko’s track ‘Kalimba’ for Dharma’s ‘Sound of Summer’ compilation). Now, Danko returns with a standalone single to KSHMR’s label ‘Rooks,' - out now!
