Dan 'Doormouse' Martin began making music and dj'ing in the 90's and started Addict Records in 1997. Exploring different realms of 'experimental electronic' music he has produced trance anthems, including 'I Love Your Clap Breath', and 'Slap the Floppers'. When not touring Ibiza or the former Soviet Union, Dan is constantly setting the crowd ablaze with his trademark double hand over head clap and monster filter sweeps. Doormouse is a one man trance army and spends most of his time looking at overweight men on the beach or flatulating.

The Doormouse sound is difficult to pinpoint, as most tracks vary in sounds, yet flow smoothly and all possess the distinct Doormouse touch. While there are plenty of harsh scrapings of breaks and rolls to be found within Doormouse's work, the true beauty and distinction lies in the sounds and washes of noise that create the mood. Any good story has a great setting, and each of Doormouse's tales of cynical despair, tragedy and biting sarcasm are overflowing with peculiar twitches, perfect samples and delirious chatter. Any single Doormouse track contains more emotion (for better or worse) than most electronic artists can create in an entire album. It's incredible.
