Based in Manchester but hailing from Nottingham, UK Producer & Selector Dainty is originally from Nottingham and now based in Manchester. He has previously received support from BBC Radio 1 (Track ID, Dancefloor Moment, Peak Time Mix) and appeared on Spotify’s Genre Glitch.
His last EP “How It Slips Away” showcases a concoction of Leftfield sonic explorations, merging flavours of UK-Garage, hard-hitting Bass and atmospherically rich Electronica. The lead single ‘Northbound’ achieved the Dance floor moment on BBC Radio 1. Self-released under his independent label, Buried, the release marks a new chapter in his career following his stint with Part Four and NYC’s Nervous Records.
The name “Dainty” holds significance reflecting his English and Jamaican upbringing. In tradition, his relatives nicknamed him “Dainty Dainty” due to his small size as a baby. The name contrasts his bold sound, which is built for big dance floors.
