Dan
is a singer/songwriter from Stoke-on-Trent and was formerly the
frontman for Translucid.
Generally
when musicians follow me on Twitter and I add them to the review list they are
actively looking for gigs or selling music of have something to promote. I am
not sure that is the case here.
There
are primarily two listening options. Youtube has a few videos, all live
performances but some in venues and some done at home. With Soundcloud there is
a more random mix, including fragments of songs that were being worked on and
can be found in other files in their completed form.
As
a lot of it is only Dan and a guitar, there is kind of a busker feel to it. He
does that well, being natural in front of the camera, and performing well, but it
doesn't have a really unified feel, especially on the Soundcloud side. If they
are being used for marketing it is probably not effective, but it seems like
they are more for just sharing, and there's nothing wrong with that.
The
key track to hear is probably "One of These Days", and you can watch
a video of Dan performing it, or listen to both a finished and unfinished track
at Soundcloud.
