Whodamanny – Baila Chica

Raffaele “Whodamanny” Arcella is an integral member behind all the projects emanating from the West Hill Studio and released on Periodica Records, guiding the sounds and vibes with his unique mixing skills and eclectic musical tastes. Some time ago, Raffaele proposed to us curating his own personal release catalog inspired by his sonic research and DJ experiences—something fresh, without frills, and effective in clubs—with a clear reference to the characteristic Latin flavors that permeated Italo-Disco during the back half of the 80s. At that point, we begin to conceive a series of super limited disco mixes purchasable only from Bandcamp, and now the first slab of dancefloor fire has arrived in the form of the “Baila Chica” single by Whodamanny himself opening the new <> catalogue. Presented in both a vocal version, and an extended dub, the track is a taut and stripped down disco stomper, with liquid licks, jangling riffs, cracking beats, triumphant brass, and layers of galactic synthesis supporting anthemic vocal hooks…with everything coming together for a blast of sun-soaked body moving bliss.
