LANE 8

Daniel Goldstein is Lane 8. Born in California, the Leipzig-based 27-year-old is building a strong army of fans for his melodic, emotional house sound.

What sets Daniel apart from the crowded dance music scene is his ability to craft music that succeeds both in the club and on the iPod - a skill that has landed him an unusually wide range of DJ support. When you consider that everyone from The Magician to ODESZA, from Above & Beyond to Annie Mac have heavily supported his music, you can see why he was named one of the "top 25 trail-blazing producers" by inthemix.com.

His first string of releases with Anjunadeep, including "Diamonds," "Be Mine", "The One / Nothing You Can Say" and "Every Night," repeatedly topped the Hype Machine charts and garnered BBC Radio 1 support from Pete Tong, B. Traits, Annie Mac and Zane Lowe. Daniel is the only guest artist to ever release music on cult label French Express, while official remixes for Above & Beyond, Eric Prydz, ODESZA, Maribou State, and Icarus have shown his knack for appealing to both mainstream and indie audiences, in addition to his deep house base.

'Rise,' Daniel's debut artist album, was released via Anjunadeep last year to cult and critical acclaim. An emotional 10-track journey across beautiful melodic instrumentals, leftfield pop moments and quirky electronica, the confident 'Rise' represented a bold, bright coming of age for Lane 8. The New York Times, SPIN, Billboard, and VICE's Noisey all premiered tracks from the album. With regard to the release of 'Rise', DJ Mag stated Lane 8 has "created a lane all to himself, free of comparison and full of resilient independence."

After yet another Hype Machine #1 track with his stirring remix of Maribou State's "Wallflower", Daniel released his 'Midnight EP' in January of 2016 on Coyu's esteemed tastemaker record label, Suara. The 3-track EP reached the top spot on Traxsource's Deep House release chart, further intensifying the momentum behind the Lane 8 name. Most recently, Daniel has introduced a new label and events concept called 'This Never Happened', removing the distractions of phones and photos and encouraging fans to experience the music and moment in its purest form.
