Dan Gresham, AKA 'NuTone' is one of the Drum & Bass scene's more talented musicians. Dan was born in Manchester in 1976, but moved to Cambridge as a child, where he developed his musical talents by singing, learning to play the piano (to grade 8) and then the organ (also to 8). Having worked in a selection of funk bands and as a funk DJ, he went off to study Music at Durham University. It was here that he had the opportunity to air his considerable funk and jazz collection on the local radio station and also that he met John B, who at the time was just beginning to produce Drum & Bass for New Identity, Formation Recordings and for Grooverider's mighty Prototype label. While in Durham, NuTone was resident alongside John B and Roscoe at their club-night 'Substance', where they played alongside legends such as Grooverider, JJ Frost, Bryan G, DJ Hype, Ed Rush, Doc Scott & DJ SS.
After finishing his degree, Dan returned to Cambridge to start up his own label Peak Recordings. He now produces and engineers there, working mainly by himself, but also collaborating occasionally with other local musicians & vocalists. He also writes and produces music for film and TV for CN Productions, DJs, and teaches A Level Music Technology.
