Dah Da Candy is the solo project of one Kmarl who is 27 years old and hails from Kobe, Japan. Although he's the only member of the band, he occasionally performs live with a support band. His music is as Shoegaze as it gets, with obvious influence from My Bloody Valentine, but he also cites Smashing Pumpkins and Primal Scream as his favorite bands.He's released one album in 2006 called Ghost Rider. It's a CD-R and can be ordered here, although I have a bit of a problem understanding everything on that page, and certanly have no idea what button to click to submit the order. At any rate he has a plethora of songs available for download on his Myspace page. A few of my favorites are included here. I might add that I am particularily fond of "Red Flower".
Thanks to Milk Milk Lemonade blog for pointing out this band in an excellent post about Shoegaze.
