Electroacoustic urban pictures. Created from bold, geometric patterns, and intricate orchestral textures fused to post-industrial soundscapes. Daniel Elms' distinctive music elicits total immersion into its intimate, emotive and abstracted commentaries on humanist, social and progressive subjects.
In 2017, Elms' music heralded the rebirth of his hometown, Hull. He manifested shimmering electronics and ghosts of the region's maritime past in his composition "Bethia" and created a spectral mist through which cut the carillon bells of Hull Minster during New Music Biennial at Hull City of Culture 2017 - commissioned by the British Film Institute.
The boiling social tensions of 2018 were captured by Elms in the engrossing, monolithic "100 Demons", which was commissioned by Manchester Collective. The piece toured throughout the UK and was the first work in a series that Elms created for the burgeoning contemporary music group.
In 2019, Elms released his debut album "Islandia" through Brooklyn-based label New Amsterdam Records - a label dedicated, like Elms, to transcending traditional and outdated genre distinctions. The five works for chamber orchestra, electric guitar, synthesizers and found sounds ruminated upon the post-industrial coastal towns and people of North East England.
The album - described by broadcaster Elizabeth Alker as "incandescent", "enchanting" and"intoxicatingly comforting" - was first sketched at the former home of Imogen Holst in Autumn 2015, courtesy of the Britten-Pears foundation, and was recorded at Abbey Road Studios in June 2017.
Elms' music has been performed at venues such as the Royal Festival Hall, King's Place, the White Hotel, the Stoller Hall, Penny Red Arts and Cobalt Studios.

Elms has also lent his technical abilities in the recording, production and editing of music to HBO's "My Brilliant Friend", the Academy-Award nominated "Never Look Away", J.J. Abrams' "11.22.63", and the captivating "Promise at Dawn".
