Starting his spinning career on the L.A. rave circuit in the early '90s, DJ Dan has gained acclaim worldwide in recent years with tracks like this one, from his 1999 compilation Funk the System. "That Zipper Track" is a roof-raising house cut, giving a nod to Dan's time spent in the Bay Area funky house trenches as part of the Funky Tekno Tribe. But instead of turning to house's disco roots for his energy source, Dan looks to the cold, computerized sounds of techno; above his beats, his machines wheeze asthmatically and quack like tin ducks. He's combined the best from two genres -- and come up with one slammin' track.
