Биография

@danielmoonking Moon King is the synthpop project of Toronto-born singer & producer Daniel Benjamin. In the early 2010's Daniel was part of the flourishing electronic music scene in Montreal, performing as a touring drummer with numerous artists including Grimes and Sean Nicholas Savage while beginning to write & produce his own music. A 2016 move to Detroit and immersion in that city’s vibrant dance music and DJ culture began to influence his own recordings, and Montreal label Arbutus Records offered to release a collection of new material. Hamtramck '16, named for the Detroit-area neighborhood, documented Moon King's shift towards disco and dance music, followed by Voice Of Lovers in 2019 and The Audition in 2021. He’s toured extensively in North America & Europe with artists like Men I Trust, TOPS, Mr Twin Sister, and Unknown Mortal Orchestra.
