Song of the Day: DJ Dan - "Fascinated"

A cover of Company B's "Fascinated" seems like an odd choice by underground DJ Dan. At first I though, is he trying to play the gay card with another version of the 80s freestyle classic that Suzanne Palmer rocked just recently with Peter Rauhofer. The new version is quite true to the original version - updated with some added electro beats and vocals by DeAnna Dellacioppa (half of tHe FreQueNcY with Eric Lumiere, the vocalist of Filo & Peri's "Anthem.") For those requiring a grittier rerub, there is a Chew Fu remix. With "Fascinated" and his recent take on "Operator," I was scratching my head trying to figure out what DJ Dan was doing -- trying to become a credible version of Almighty or Kloned? Then I realized that these are singles from his forthcoming debut artist album 'Future Retro' where he will track his musical history and chart his future with tracks coproduced with Uberzone, Hatiras, Macca and Aude. From the track listing, I look forward to taking the journey with him.
