Dangerous Beauty

Biography

Brooding rhythms and lush, atmospheric melodies played by the mouth, tongue and chin of disabled musician Larime as Danielle paints exquisite pictures with haunting french, english, latin and japanese vocals - blend this all together and you have the music of Dangerous Beauty. From ambient to dance, trip-hop to trance, this is the music that forms the soundtrack of your subconscious mind and dreams.

Based in San Jacinto, California, Dangerous Beauty craft songs of the imagination with music that seeps into the mind and lyrics that flow from a stream of consciousness, telling tales of emotion and passion that wells from the minds and spirits of the disabled husband and wife duo.

Born in Eastern French-Canada, Danielle didn't speak English until age 7. At 9 she began her vocal training in classical choir and operatic voice under the rigorous instruction of Catholic School Nuns. A genetic hip and knee condition and an early childhood divorce caused her to mature quickly. She would leave home to live on her own at 16 though she stayed in school and graduated, and arrived in America at 19.

Meeting over the internet in 1996, Danielle moved to Flagstaff, Arizona, to visit Larime and ended up staying. They married a year and a day later and began making music together as Incarnadine. Several moves, many health and financial problems and a near-death experience for Danielle landed the two in San Jacinto, California, with family, broke and without any music equipment. A generous donation from Roland Co. USA put them back on track, and A Dream Of A Thousand Cats was born.

After struggling with inadequate recording equipment, family came to the rescue and helped Danielle and Larime establish a pro-quality home recording studio. With new gear came a new sound, and since the edgier, heavier sound no longer fit the name, ADOATC was put to rest and Dangerous Beauty began recording its first album, 'The Secret of the Machines'.
