Artist: Dan be
Title: 'Closer'
Label: ALTERNATIVA
Dan be is Spanish and has been working out of the UK for years. When Happiness Therapy put out his 'Makes Me Happy' EP in September 2022, his first proper solo outing for them after a couple of compilation appearances the year before, the label had him living in Glasgow. His own page says London now. He also heads up Y4 Collective.
The catalogue behind him is wider than the UKG tag suggests. That 2022 EP closed on a collaboration with the Portuguese producer Bernardo Mota, and he has since worked with Alex Bone on 'Ooh', plus Kosmo Kint on 'Desire Path'.
'Closer' is UKG, it came out on 7 August 2026, and it is catalogue number ATTV03 for ALTERNATIVA. Lovely little old-school garage bumper.
