Notaker
Origin: None
Notaker is the alter ego of St. Louis-based dance music producer Dave Nothaker. Notaker’s distinctive style of dance music, characterized both by his strong sound design and his devotion to imbuing his compositions with heavy narrative elements, helps him create songs that wholly immerse fans in his unique universe.
Notaker emphasizes creating art that has depth beyond just the song itself — whether in the form of strong artwork, live visuals, or music videos, his music always tells a multi-faceted story. He is intimately involved in art directing all of the visual elements of his songs, ensuring that each song explores a meaningful theme by telling a cohesive story. 2016 was Notaker’s biggest year, highlighted by the release of “Infinite” on Monstercat. “Infinite” saw immense success, amassing over 2 million plays on Spotify.
Inspired by legends like Hans Zimmer, Deadmau5, Eric Prydz, M83, and Porter Robinson, Notaker has also seen support from Above & Beyond, ARTY, Sander Van Doorn, Benny Bennassi, Gareth Emery, Moguai, Tommie Sunshine, Tom Swoon and Thomas Gold. With several upcoming releases on Monstercat, Notaker is poised to make 2017 his breakout year, and begin showcasing his unique combination of sonic and visual art to fans across North America.
