Magic In So Many Ways



Brooklyn-based singer and electronic musician Danielle “Danz” Johnson, stage name Computer Magic, has made one of the quickest jumps into the indie music limelight I have seen in a while; after mere months making music for the public, she was featured in Stereogum’s Top 30 Arists to See at SXSW, among many other sources of high praise (and for good reason!). We all know of the breadth of electronic music that exists right now, but as I sit here trying to give you an artist or two to compare her style to for reference, I literally can’t think of anything… my version of the highest of compliments. She currently has two EPs out, entitled Spectronic and Electronic Fences (the former isn’t on iTunes, but is available for free download on her website!). My absolute favorite track of hers is “The End of Time,” however I also think that “Holiday Song,” “Electronic Fences,” “In So Many Ways,” and “Grand Junction” are incredible. Wesleyan kids keep your fingers crossed, because I have been talking to Danz about playing a set on campus before the end of the semester! Listen to “The End of Time” and Grand Junction” below:
