Daniel is a London-based, sound artist, electronic musician, sound designer, and content creator whose work explores the intersection of technology, composition, and sonic experimentation. With a focus on modular synthesis, generative systems, and audio programming, Daniel Marin constructs immersive soundscapes that blend organic unpredictability with digital precision.
Driven by a deep curiosity for the mechanics of sound, Daniel integrates advanced synthesis techniques, algorithmic composition, and custom audio processing to create evolving, textural compositions. Being a qualified Pro Tools specialist and proficient in programming languages such as Pure Data and Python his work is informed by both the technical and artistic dimensions of sound design, drawing inspiration from electronic minimalism, experimental ambient music, and modular systems. He has performed and exhibited in numerous locations in London, like for example Cafe 1001, Gallery 46, The Crypt Gallery, London College of Communication or Q Shoreditch among others and having performed also in the US and Spain.
Beyond music production, Daniel is dedicated to knowledge-sharing and community building within the electronic music and sound design space. Through content creation, he demystifies complex sound technologies, providing insight into synthesis, digital signal processing, and creative coding, being involved in numerous projects with instrument companies like Dubreq Stylophone (UK), Artiphon (USA), Synido (China) or Playtronica (Berlin). His work not only challenges sonic conventions but also seeks to inspire and educate a new generation of sound artists and technologists, having also recently worked in film composition and sound design for the films Green Girl (India) and Brothers (Australia). The sound emerging from the modular synths and tape recorders he uses, brings us tracks full of immersive atmospheres and rich textures, creating an abstract world to submerge in and having released albums, EPs and collaborations with labels like Diffuse Reality, Kama or Calm Coastline.
- Identify the platform you will use for your digital portfolio.
In my early research in these platforms I have find out that the best options for my spectators are Wix, for being free and easy to use and also Cargo, as being recommended for more experimental and minimalists portfolios, I think that I will be trying both and finally decide one of them for my website.
- Consider how you will take your work forward after graduation.
After graduation I will be focused first into finding permanent work and also freelance opportunities in order to gain stability, and once this is achieved I would like to keep developing my practice in experimental music, keep building a community and participating in exhibitions and events.
