Analog Rebellion (formerly PlayRadioPlay!) is the solo, independent music project of Aledo, Texas songwriter Daniel Hunter. Hunter's solo career was started under the name PlayRadioPlay! in December 2005. Hunter changed the name to Analog Rebellion in September 2009, stating in his blog "I have come to the point where I no longer feel that the name PlayRadioPlay! represents the music I create".
Hunter writes, records and performs all of his own music, and refers to his sound as "Stadium Lo-Fi", an oxymoronic synthesis of the Lo-Fi genre and Stadium Rock genre. Hunter's most recent music has been compared to The Paper Chase, Pixies and The Secret Machines. In April 2010, The Dallas Observer called Hunter "the most promising 20-year-old musician from DFW since Palomo".
Hunter began creating music in his garage, but it was not until he discovered Music Programming in Music Theory class at Aledo High School he began to create electronic-based music.
After rapidly gaining popularity on MySpace, Hunter signed with Island/Stolen Transmission midway through his senior year of high school. Hunter released an EP entitled The Frequency E.P. on April 27, 2007, which debuted at No. 6 on the Billboard Electronic chart and No. 27 on the Heatseekers chart. A full-length album entitled Texas was released March 18, 2008 debuting at No. 157 on the Billboard 200. In support of the album, he toured nationally with American rock bands Fall Out Boy, Secondhand Serenade, Yellowcard, The Spill Canvas, Hellogoodbye and Making April.
