Making Waves in Electronic Music: Dan Berg Speaks On His Upcoming Compilation Album and More

Daniel Berg stopped by the studio to work on some new material this week!  I sat down with the “Fireberg” producer who, originally from Philadelphia, moved to Brooklyn in 2009. About a year later he started working under the pseudonym “Fireberg” in which he produces electronic music and loops for live performances.
Dan is putting the finishing touches on a compilation EP made up of plethora of songs recorded over the past three years. If you had to give the album a concept, Dan says,” The concept would be without a voice”, and for the simple fact that the album has no recorded vocals.  Where Dan lacks in vocals, he makes up for in varying samples of old school informational videos telling you things you should already know like not to do drugs or stay in school. Throw a couple vinyl samples, hip-hop influences, and an understanding of the different components of jazz into the mix and you have the self-proclaimed “Eclectronic” style of music Dan loves to make.

In the Studio With Fractal Caravan


We have been having a great time with Fractal Caravan this past week who have been recording their debut album “PARADOX LUST”, here at MetroSonic! Fractal Caravan consists of lead Edwin Quirk, Fabio Montenegro, and David Cornejo. The three piece band who are based out of Brooklyn have a very distinct funk sound that, we here at MetroSonic, only want to make funkier! They have a single out as well here and make sure to follow them on Facebook.





A-Trak @ Metrosonic


We’re very proud to announce that internationally acclaimed DJ, producer and Fool’s Gold co-founder A-Trak is finishing up his stay at Metrosonic this week. Mr. Trak was at Metrosonic working with several other artists and producers this past week on a yet to be announced project. Among his collaborators were producer Childish Major and punk band Dameht.

You may recall his 2012 EP entitled Tuna Melt also featured a few excellent collaborations. Perhaps most notable of which was his partnership with Australian producer Tommy Trash on the EP’s title track  “Tuna Melt”which in 2013 got a video of it’s very own. A-Trak & Tommy Trash “Tuna Melt” (Official Music Video) – YouTube
For a long time fan like myself it was absolute torture keeping my cool this week, but I’m proud to say I didn’t geek out even once. I made it.
