Dan Gaetta (trans-world sailor extraordinaire) was once one of the coolest sounds coming of wham city next to
Deacon himself, the cartoon cat-suit wearing Baltimore based purveyor of 'Candy Crunk', the perfect union of b-more, rainbowy 8-Bit, and Dirty South Rap. If you still don't get what that may sound like, the blog
Rainbowtrash! probably best described him and his sound: "OCDJ sounds like he stormed the ghetto, painted it bright pink, and replaced every thug's gun with an ice-cream cone, and everyone was waaaaaay into it." He released one official LP entitled 'Hooray' in 2007 on
Wildfire Wildfire Records (which is an awesome experimental label.) He had self-released an album entitled Pins and Things and had planned to release a third album, but unfortunately Dan abruptly decided to leave the world of music for a life of adventure on the high seas, and these unreleased albums have been lost with time. His DJ show was apparently awesome, ive seen some clips online, it did look pretty cool. Anyways check it out, its really a lot of fun>>
