Daniel Andrew Biro /biːroʊ/ (born 1963) is a composer, keyboard player, songwriter and producer based in London. He is the founder of the Sargasso record label, established in 1993. Biro has released over 25 albums of original music as a solo artist and in collaboration with bands such as Mysteries of the Revolution (with Peter BB Davis), Echo Engine (with Rob Palmer), and Colin Bass (member of prog band Camel).[1][2][non-primary source needed] His music is at the crossroads between electronic, ambient, experimental, jazz-fusion, progressive rock and is mainly instrumental, although he has also written many songs for collaborative projects. Biro's sound is built around his use of the Rhodes electric piano and vintage analogue synthesisers. He has also composed soundtracks for various film, TV, and live performance theatre projects.[3][4]
