Dabin is a JUNO nominated music producer/instrumentalist from Toronto, now located in Montreal. Having spent his teens learning to play the piano, drums and guitar, Dabin started producing electronic music in 2011. He quickly attracted the attention of Kannibalen Records and released his first tracks on the ever growing independent label only a year later. Now Dabin has increased his exposure by supplementing releases with Seeking Blue, who released his second album, Wild Youth.
Dabin has gained millions of plays while refining his musical style into what it is today. His “Two Hearts” LP is the biggest stamp on his journey yet, fully expressing his current creative mind. Through his sonic stories Dabin has touched the souls and sets of producers like Illenium, Don Diablo, Excision, Gramatik and BTSM. Dabin has also collaborated directly with such acts as Illenium, Seven Lions, SLANDER, and Said The Sky for iconic hits that have catapulted him forwards.
Dabin distinguishes himself with a unique genre-defying live show in which he incorporates electronic guitar, synthesizers and drum pads. He’s taken his show on tours with BTSM and Illenium, as well as to festivals including EDC, Electric Forest, Shambhala, Decadence, Nocturnal Wonderland, Igloofest, Digital Dreams and more. Dabin is also the guitarist for Illenium’s Awake band that has had numerous sold out shows, including multiple back-to-back nights at San Francisco’s historic Bill Graham theatre.
