"Ride Or Die" loads all the bases. From production to rapping to the singing on the hook, everything is on-point. Danny Arcane, is a rapper from Milwaukee, also the home of singer Jayne Joyce and rapper AR Wesley. The beat has a riff that transports you into an LA 80's crime movie, and that's an undeniably cool position to be creating a song out of. "Ride Or Die" is an excellent finished product with no rough edges, and another sick contribution from the exciting Milwaukee rap community. - These Days News
Danny Arcane looks to contemporary club sounds then turns them inward on his dreamy latest single "Mi Mynd," the latest from the chilled-out rapper/singer's upcoming album Arcane. It's the catchiest, most blissed-out thing we've heard from him yet. I imagine that if Youth Lagoon's Trevor Powers produced rap music it might sound like this. - The Shepherd Express

Bio
MC and producer Danny Arcane was born in England and raised in the UK and the US. Now based in Chicago he’s been in the shadows constructing a hybrid sound of Indie Hip Hop. Often producing songs with dark melodic vibes and airy synths sometimes a dreamy upbeat song breaks through the barrier to change the spectrum. On other occasions he may have an outburst of pure aggression and self loathing with a more aggressive approach to the instrumental. Danny tries to channel as much emotion and creativity into every song concept he proposes to a project.
Having experienced different locations growing up he has often been seen as an outsider or understood by few around him which lead to him choosing the Arcane portion of his artist moniker. Having studied Audio Engineering every note of every song is carefully tweaked and tailored for the audience to fully represent the point Arcane is making.
Danny Arcane has performed at various different venues from bars, clubs and art galleries and is well known for trying to encourage a space in which freedom of expression is encouraged and judgement is frowned upon.
