Last month, Daphni aka Dan Snaith returned with his first solo Daphni release since 2022, ‘Sad Piano House’, following up his recent collaboration with Sofia Kourtesis, ‘Unidos’. Today he has followed up with another new single ‘Clap Your Hands’. ‘Clap Your Hands’ represents a very different side of Daphni to ‘Sad Piano House’, gritty and intoxicating while retaining the playful urgency that runs through all of Snaith’s work of late. The track comes alongside visuals from 555-5555.

Speaking of the track Snaith says:
”this is a bit of a vibe shift from the restraint of sad piano house… i made this one for a set at Rainbow Disco Club in Japan and have been playing it everywhere ever since. i’ve got a whole bunch of unreleased daphni stuff ready to go and i’m pretty much letting what fans are asking me about the most decide what comes out next. it feels great to know that there are people who have heard it in my sets that are waiting for it. it’s simple and intuitive – once i’d got the basic idea together the key was to just get out of the way and not overcomplicate it. just to make sure it hit hard and that the timing was right so that it keeps you waiting for new elements to come in just long enough.”

With more new Daphni music to come, Snaith will be DJing across the summer and plays a special 7 hour set at London’s FOLD on 22 November which has already sold out. Daphni just headlined the Glade Dome at this year’s Glastonbury and popped up across the weekend as part of Floating Points’ Sunflower Soundsystem (as well as headlining the Park Stage as Caribou). Daphni will also play a show in Bristol at Prospect in October with more DJ dates across the summer and beyond to come, plus Caribou headlining End of the Road Festival.
