dalton is a musical alias of Dalton Kuepker, a musician born in Portland, Oregon. He is a producer of electronic music, first starting out by uploading dance music on Newgrounds as “Sonic-rules321” at the age of 12.

Over the years, his musical skills began to improve from experience, and his songs started to venture outside of trance-like music. In 2009, he decided to produce music under the alias, “my name is (dalton)”, which he later depreciated in favor of the simpler “dalton.” alias in 2010.

Influences include Benn Jordan (The Flashbulb), Tom Jenkinson (Squarepusher), Boards of Canada, Remarc, Danny Breaks, Public Enemy, Art of Noise, Fatboy Slim, Kraftwerk, Richard D. James (Aphex Twin), Daft Punk, Aaron Funk (Venetian Snares), Amon Tobin, Goldie, and Mike Paradinas (μ-Ziq). Read more on Last.fm.
