Sweguno

Buy my debut album 'No Right Or Wrong Way Forward' here: Sweguno is the solo musical project of Dan Ainslie, a Canadian electronic musician currently residing in Northern California. Drawing inspiration from live-looping musicians such as Robert A. A. Lowe, and the classic electronic vanguard of Warp, Skam, & Rephlex, Dan uses his voice as an instrumental lead. The vocal, largely untethered to language, is used to convey melody, emotion, and texture, alongside rhythmic & melodic elements both sampled & bespoke. The resulting music, whether heard on a dance floor, chill-out room, or immersed in headphones, is creatively insular, and entirely genuine. Dan has released music on numerous labels, and in 2019 toured North America with longtime Warp Records recording artists Seefeel as an opening act. His debut album ‘No Right Or Wrong Way Forward‘ is out now. Business
