"Dankann"
Emanuele Carrieri aka Dankann, is a young Italian producer with a natural talent for music. Fascinated by the trance atmosphere and influenced by progressive-house sound, he forges different styles together, to create impressive tracks. His natural talent and passion for music is expressed when he states that the search for a melody has a key role in his productions, because as a mirror, it reflects every emotion. This passion for music, and desire to be able to share it, drives him to work with big labels, though the major turning point in his career has been his exclusive partnership with "Starlight" which began in autumn 2008. This collaboration saw him release his first single "Return from Paradise" that launched him on the scene, and reached the top 10 on the Beatport charts; it was also considerably popular among djs and on radio. Then he continued his feat with the single "I Keep Breathing", a collaboration with Aqua Diva, that also obtained excellent results and confirmed his success on beatport, by remaining in the charts for over a month. For achieving so much in such a short time, Beatport named him one of the most promising artists in 2009, and has compared him to big named producers like Adam K, Glen Morrison, etc.. To honour this acclamation, Dankann released "Born Slippy" and "West Coast" which further cemented his credibility and talent among DJs by putting him on their radar, and as such, has enabled him to be in the top 10 on the charts with the single "Helia"; supported by Tiesto, Axwell, Paul Van Dyk, Thomas Gold and many other prominent dj’s. What is left to say? There is much for to come, and 2010 is set to be a year of innovation: with new projects in the pipeline and collaborations that will showcase every side of this “multifaceted" artist.
