Genelec visits GRAMMY-nominated producer from Finland Danitello
Continuing our 'The Art of Creating in Your Space' series, our exclusive video interview with Danitello gives you a unique chance to hear how – as a top producer – he gets the best from the artists he collaborates with, some of which are huge names – such as Burna Boy, Drake, G-Eazy, Zeina, Tom Grennan, Lil Nas X, and Chino Pacas.

Born in 1998, Daniel is still in his twenties, yet he’s already built a formidable reputation and earned the respect of the music-making industry. With three GRAMMY Award nominations, multi-platinum selling figures, Finnish Emma Gaala nominations and a host of other exceptional achievements under his belt, Danitello has proven himself a powerful force in his short career and marked himself as a name to watch out for well into the future. His most recent GRAMMY nomination came for the track ‘Empty Chairs (featuring Mick Jagger)’ – a part of Burna Boy’s ‘No Sign of Weakness’, which was shortlisted for Best Global Music Album.
In Danitello’s interview, you'll enjoy a rare window into his fascinating life, passion for music, and the cosy studio space where all the magic happens. By its end, you’ll discover how his life could have taken a totally different turn had it not been for changes to government support, how he keeps his imagination open to every musical possibility, his thoughts on what it takes to succeed and, of course, the Genelec system that powers his creativity – which features our intelligently adaptive 8341A ‘The Ones’ Smart Active Monitors, 7360 Smart Active subwoofer and GLM calibration kit.
