Daphni, real name Dan Snaith, has shared a new standalone single, titled ‘Sad Piano House’.
Out now, it’s the first material to emerge from Snaith since he released the album Honey under his Caribou alias last year. You can listen to the new song below.
In a statement, the producer said: “I DJ’d a lot last year in the lead-up to the Caribou album and inevitably ended up making a bunch of new music to play out in those sets. I’d made this one but knew that I wasn’t sure about it or when it would ever get a release so I sent it over to Ben UFO and he started playing it and people started asking me about it.
“Now I’ve finally got a chance to finish it off and release it. I’d given it the temporary title ‘Sad Piano House’ when I sent it because it’s piano house… but, you know, not that kind of piano house… I didn’t really intend for that to be the final track title but once it appeared in a couple of tracklists for radio shows and people started asking about it, the title stuck.”
More new Daphni tracks are set to follow later this year, while Snaith will also play a seven-hour DJ set at London club FOLD on November 22. He’ll headline Glastonbury’s The Park stage as Caribou at the end of this month.
‘Sad Piano House’ is out now on Jiaolong.
