As Daphni, Dan Snaith recaptures dance music's elemental power with driving, hypnotic tracks distinctly different from his Caribou work. The raw edits, remixes, and singles that preceded 2012's full-length debut Jiaolong reflected the project's roots as propulsive additions to Snaith's DJ sets, and tracks like "Yes, I Know" and "Ye Ye" remained dance floor staples years after their release. Daphni's 2017 mix album Fabriclive 93 and second full-length Joli Mai (which featured the full tracks Snaith excerpted in his mix) complemented each other perfectly, reflecting his skills as a DJ and producer. On 2022's Cherry, Snaith broadened Daphni's horizons with hints of techno while remaining true to the project's commitment to danceable grooves.
