Dan Kye

**Dan Kye** is the dancefloor-focused alias of New Zealand-born, London-based multi-instrumentalist and producer Jordan Rakei. While Rakei is widely known for his soulful, jazz-inflected solo work, Dan Kye lets him lean into vibrant house rhythms and sunlit electronic textures. The project came to life with his 2020 EP *Small Moments*, a collection of airy, groove-driven tracks like "Rainbow Road" and "Joy, Ease, Lightness" that blend warm synths with intricate percussion. Recent releases, including the hypnotic "Queen (Dan Kye Remix)" and the shimmering "Change (Edit)," showcase his knack for reimagining tracks with a buoyant, tactile energy. Though he keeps Dan Kye’s backstory minimalist, the music speaks volumes—think late-night drives, sunrise DJ sets, and rhythms that prioritize feel over flash.
