Computer Magic
Computer Magic just released the new EP Obscure but Visible via Channel 9 Records where Danz (born Danielle Johnson) continues to bridge the organic & earnest with the electronic musical modes. An artist that has captured the ears & attention of the entire globe since roughly 2010; Danz recently astounded with the cosmic synth traveling album Davos and now presents the newest chapters.
Obscure But Visible opens with “Dimensions” where Danz floats between the worlds of feelings, thoughts, realities & imagination that all together get wrapped up in a glorious ode to the bliss of infatuation. Thoughts of coupling & togetherness are then traded for the introverted thoughts of rises & falls of “Lonely Like We Are”, right before the anthem of era-owning heard on “The New Generation”. Escapist maneuvers are made on “Gone For The Weekend” that gets the hell outta dodge while making cool moves to a new town before you are left with the super-snazzy affair of “Been Waiting” that will keep you waiting until Danz sends word of a future EP/LP. In the meantime marinate on Obscure But Visible where Danz provides a more personal and inner view into her multi-faceted world of synths & honest sentiments.
Danz described for us some of the creative inspirations that informed the new EP & more with the following exclusive insights:
Before Obscure but Visible was an EP, it was going to be an album, but I was writing so many songs that I wanted to split it up. Actually, there’s a hidden track at the end of “Been Waiting” that alludes to one of the songs on the next album. I mainly wrote Obscure but Visible in upstate New York near Bear Mountain. I was spending a lot of time around nature for the first time in years so I think that inspired a lot of the EP.
