"Dan Goldman is a songwriter based in Toronto, and his latest project is a group of unusual, tuneful, elegantly textured songs about sharks, boulders, frozen lakes, clay portraits, and the emotions they evoke and reflect. With accompaniments that include gorgeous string quartet arrangements by Owen Pallett (Final Fantasy), the sound-world of Goldman's songs is lush and fresh. "Luxury Pond" hasn't been released yet, and host David Garland offers you your first chance to hear this delectably original album."

Through A Revolution



In spring of 2004 Dan released Through A Revolution, which features Mia Sheard, Justin Haynes and Owen Pallett, among a slew of others. In this collage-based production, underwater imagery floats to the surface aided by phased drum loops, while garbled radio signals and sampled clarinets recreate the urban soundtrack of the Montreal subway system. Some songs are postcards from childhood, while others recount the litigations of love in a hushed and patient way.



"Combining avant-garde sound collage with the melodies and emotional forthrightness of pop, Dan Goldman's Through A Revolution is one of 2004's most intriguing Canadian albums. "

-Michael White (The Westender, Vancouver)
