One of the very first artists to sign to the fledgling Hospital label – way back at the turn of the millennium, Danny Byrd’s own inimitable take on soulful, vocal drum & bass has become a staple in the scene. His use of hip hop, house and r&b influences immediately began turning heads with his first Hospital outings. 2008 saw the release of Danny’s long awaited long player “Supersized”. Featuring the massive anthems “Shock Out” and “Red Mist” (feat. I-Kay) this giant of an album saw massive support from big hitters such as Annie Mac, Zane Lowe, and the mighty Andy C. The VIP version of “Red Mist VIP” catapulted its way onto the daytime Radio One playlist receiving over six hours of Radio One play in 2009, all to itself.
Following this Danny brought liquid’s rave classic “Sweet Harmony” up to date in spectacular fashion. The hit single reached number one in the UK dance singles chart and took Danny’s music to a whole new audience.
Championing a revival of classic dance music sounds along with his own unique and forward thinking production the second Danny Byrd studio album “Rave Digger” is now to be unleashed in October 2010. The lead single “Ill Behaviour” featuring I-Kay is set to blow up, having mowed down thousands of ravers at festivals over the summer.
