Dday One (born Udeze Ukwuoma) is an American music producer, DJ and songwriter, from Los Angeles, California. [1] [2] He is known for his instrumental sample-based productions which incorporate the extensive use of Break-Beats and organic sounds with emotional elements. [3] [4] Using the Sampler as his sole instrument and mainly drawing from nature, Free jazz and World music, his compositional process is rooted in the lineages of classic hip hop production and Electro-Acoustic music. [5] [6]
He has released projects on various labels but the bulk of his output has been through Content (L)abel, [7] a label which he founded and functions as artistic director, creating a majority of the cover art photography. [8] [9]
Throughout the years, Dday One has performed worldwide, sharing the stage with the likes of Kid Koala, Olive Oil, Yppah, Hisham Bharoocha and many more. [10] [11] Distinct from many contemporary electronic performers, Dday One's performances do not rely heavily on the use of a laptop with performance software. Alternatively, his setup is similar to the classic hip hop studio, consisting of a turntable, mixer, effects module and a hardware sampler. Primarily with the use of the Roland MV-8000 sampler in conjunction with the Korg mini-KP, he mixes various musical styles with elements of his own compositions while improvising and drumming out the percussive parts in real time.
In addition to production, he is also a contributing Host / DJ for Rhythm Incursions; a Podcast syndicated by London's Resonance 104.4FM. The podcast consists of themed mixes under the title "In Session". [14] [15]
