In terms of influence, Dansman began his electronic musical journey with the likes of DJ Tiesto (the "Magik" mix series) then moved onto luminaries such as the Chemical Brothers, before settling onto the bleeding edge of underground house and techno. Now, Dansman takes as much joy from listening to Top 40 Rap/R&B as he does listening to vinyl-only white labels, making him uniquely qualified to know what people want before they know themselves.

His #BODYFEEL series, founded with platonic life-partner Throe, combines urban sounds with a techno aesthetic so naturally you'd think people would have been doing it for years. A rising comet in the DC scene, Dansman has honed his skills for over five years, playing sold-out shows in shotgun bars for tens of people. With a bi-monthly residency at DC's hottest underground dance club, Flash, Dansman improves his profile with every record played.
