To steal a direct quote from Bristol native Eats Everything, “I like big bass and solid beats.” And while that is a very broad description of Eats, or Daniel Pearce’s booty-shaking productions, we can’t get enough of those basslines and tricked out drum beats which is why we are very excited to have Eats Everything join us for Sun City Music Festival, going down August 31st and September 1st.
Daniel Pearce’s vision for music has been molded from an early age. “I grew up listening to early hardcore at the start of the 90s, Ellis Dee, Carl Cox. Easygroove etc, and seriously into jungle when it emerged from the hardcore scene and the harder end of techno as well. One day a good friend played me a house record by the Rhythm Masters and from there on it was house all the way. I guess the strong musical vision comes from the fact that I have been listening to dance music and DJing for a long, long time and I have seen a lot of genres/styles come and go. I guess that I encompass a lot of those styles both old and current and try to do something unique.” It is that unique sound that has landed Pearce to the worldwide success he’s at now.
Eats Everything first caught our eye with his breakout release “Entrance Song” back in 2011. Pearce recalls how it was signed, “I made it in June 2010, a few labels that I sent it to turned it down and then it was meeting J Phlip from dirtybird at a club in Bristol in February that was the turning point really. I gave her the tracks, she loved them, passed them to Voitek and Greg from Catz n Dogz and the next day they emailed me asking to sign them. I couldn’t believe it as I was a massive fan of Pets Recordings, Catz n Dogz and J Phlip and it was amazing that they were into my music.”
Since the Entrance Song EP, Pearce has won massive support from heavyweights in wide array of genres including the heads at label dirtybird. “I had been sending stuff to Claude Von Stroke but to no avail, he was always polite and said it wasn’t quite right or whatever. Then he heard Justin Martin play “The Size” at Movement Festival earlier this year and the next day I had an email asking if he could sign it. It was signed to another label at the time, a really good one but not as big as dirtybird, so Vonstroke asked Worthy if he could sign it, Worthy said yes.”
