Electronic producer Daniel Nieto aka Danieto hails from Santiago de Chile. In the late nineties he started to produce his own music together with Pier Bucci inspired by the english „Intelligent Techno“ scene of those years. After numerous digital and CD releases the Nueva Estación EP on Level Records is his first vinyl release. In contrary to many contemporary productions, which tend to minimalism and reduction, Danietos dense harmonies are interwoven by polyrhythmic structures. His style is a reminiscence of the zenith of minimal productions around the turn of the millenium, when stilistic variety was broader and much more differentiated than nowadays. In the remix of the polish producer Slg pianopatterns and hypnotic synthesizer lines meander continously over the old school drumset and transform Danietos version into a veritable classic housetrack; russian trio Modul disentangles the dense original and dissolves a compact pushing groove as well as fragments of harmonies. Through this reduction and the new arrangement of the remix develops huge radiance and club compatibility.
