Continues live at Complex, Los Angeles, 30 January 2014.
You might know Dan from the legendary Californian scrapyard industrial junk punk band Babyland. Following the demise of Babyland, Dan went on to form Continues.
As one of the two people in Babyland, you'd expect that some of the sounds from Babyland would carry over to Continues. You wouldn't be totally wrong on that account. However, Continues takes a wholly more melodic approach to electronic music than Babyland, with a much heavier hand on the lush string synths and more tuneful melodies.
Dan obviously has a healthy love for the synthpop bands of the 80s and many of the post-punk and synth bands of the 80s and 90s and beyond, and he very much wears his love of those bands and those sounds on his sleeve in Continues.
