Whodamanny

Whodamanny, also known as Raffaele Arcella, is a multifaceted Italian musician, producer, and DJ renowned for his contributions to the contemporary electronic music scene, especially in the domains of disco, house, and expansive cosmic sounds. His artistic moniker alludes to a playful enigma, embodying the unpredictable nature of his musical endeavors. Starting his journey in Naples, a city with a rich cultural tapestry, Whodamanny has been integral in the propagation of modern Italo-disco and electronic funk, melding retro-futuristic aesthetics with experimental sonics.

His work ethos is steeped in a deep-rooted appreciation for analog synthesizers and vintage production techniques, which is evident through the warm, tape-saturated textures present in his recordings. Through his most recent releases, including the off-kilter "Natale in tangenziale," the jovial "Baila Chica!," and the abstract journey offered in "Cosmic Morphology," Whodamanny has cemented his position as a connoisseur of the underground dance music scene. Albums such as "The Dance Sucker" showcase his ability to traverse through different sonic landscapes, from boogie-inspired rhythms to avant-garde electronica. As a member of the celebrated The Mystic Jungle Tribe, he also collaborates on various projects that aim to push the envelope of electronic music while maintaining a nostalgic nod to its roots.
