Trackstack Podcast E40: Dan Duncan (Pig&Dan) — Why He Co-Founded Suru Music
Friday, 7 August, 2026
Dan Duncan, one half of the duo Pig&Dan and the trio INTENSE, joins the Trackstack Podcast for one of the most honest conversations we've had about the music industry.Growing up between London and New England, Dan was raised deep inside the music business — his father founded the most respected white soul band of the 70s and played on some of the most iconic albums from Chaka Khan, Marvin Gaye, Dire Straits, and Tom Petty. But that same industry took everything from his family when their manager cleared the band's accounts and disappeared. Dan watched his parents lose almost everything, and years later, after building his own path at RAK, a London studio, through the birth of drum & bass and jungle, the same thing happened to him. His own band sold over 120,000 CDs and came away with £1,000.That history is exactly why Dan co-founded Suru Music: a platform built to fix the distrust, isolation, and lack of validation he experienced firsthand as an artist. In this episode, he breaks down the story behind Pig&Dan, why sticking to your own signature sound beats imitating anyone else's, and what Suru Music is actually for.Follow Dan: @piganddanFollow Suru Music: @suru.musicFollow Trackstack: @trackstack.pro
