A staple artist on Purified Records, Dan Sushi returns to the label with his two-track ‘Horizon’ EP – a powerful blend of nostalgic textures, emotive depth, and club-ready dynamics that highlights his ongoing evolution as a producer.
Opening with the title track, ‘Horizon’ draws listeners into a dreamlike world where airy melodies and atmospheric pads meet gritty rhythmic force. Merging nostalgic, rave-inspired synth lines with a refined modern aesthetic, the Swiss producer crafts a hypnotic journey that blurs the lines between past and present. The track unfolds with smooth momentum, layering intricate percussion and driving low-end beneath a glowing melodic lead that gives the piece its euphoric lift.
Flipping to ‘Nostalgia’, the EP dives deeper into cinematic territory. A weighty bassline and delicately grooved percussion form the foundation, while sweeping melodies and evolving textures guide the listener through a soundscape that’s as introspective as it is immersive. A serene breakdown evokes natural beauty and emotional stillness, before building back into a rhythm-driven crescendo that’s primed for late-night dancefloors.
Renowned for his ability to fuse delicate emotion with bold sonic design, Dan Sushi continues to refine his sound with each release. The ‘Horizon’ EP stands as a testament to his artistic clarity – balancing the energy of underground club culture with a melodic sensibility that resonates far beyond the dancefloor.
The ‘Horizon’ EP artwork is an aerial photograph of a glacial river in Iceland taken by Jan Erik Waider. A fine art photographer based in Hamburg, Germany, Jan is known for capturing abstract landscapes of the northern latitudes. With a focus on water, ice, and intricate natural patterns, his work reveals the beauty hidden in the subtle details of the world around us.

Dan Sushi is a part of the Swiss duo Fat Sushi. They are releasing tracks and remixes on some of the most respected labels in the game: Suara, Einmusika, Katermukke, Days like Nights, Odd One Out, Global Underground or Parquet to name a few. Being in the industry for almost two decades before the peculiarly named pairing decided to join forces in 2013, you can hear the inspiration of various musical styles in their productions: heavy basslines, uplifting melodies and carefully chosen vocals – from deep house to techno spectrum.
With gigs all over Europe, Asia and the US over the last few years, times have been hectic for the Zurich based guys.
In 2023 Dan Sushi decided to start his own solo side project. His first EP “Titanium” will be released in autumn on Nora En Pure`s record lable Puriefied.
Dan Sushi – Horizon EP is out now on Purified Records.
