Brothers L+L may, born and raised in London, 1st emerged as dj/producers on the UK club scene as duo medicine8. Since the release of their critically acclaimed and influential debut album Iron Stylings (Regal/Parlophone) they have traveled the world djing everywhere from Buenos Aires, to Moscow, to Tokyo. But perhaps most significantly, as far as Black Daniel is concerned, New York Here, as guests at many of Craig's hedonistic club nights, the bond was formed…

Craig Louis Higgins jr was born in Massachusetts but moved to NYC when he landed a job at the legendary New York house label strictly rhythm. He quickly began to make a name for himself all over town with his con-fu-sion nights held at various venues including Centro fly, and meat packing district clubs, baktun and filter 14. It was at filter 14 though (former home of infamous drag queen party Jackie 60) where things really clicked, pioneering the acid house revival way ahead of time with medicine8 and the godfather of acid himself Mr. dj Pierre.

After many visits and road trips, including a tour of the states where Craig came along as tour manager and general good vibe provider and numerous infamous con-fu-sion parties together at the Miami winter music conference. L+L knew they had to get Mr. Higgins over to London and into the studio to capture his unique way with words and quirky view of life in general. These sessions were originally meant to be the basis of the 2nd medicine 8 album however all involved soon realized that they had stumbled on something completely new and far more exciting. Hence, Black Daniel was born.

After a rush of creativity and frenzied studio sessions their 1st album has now been completed…
