It’s a new special episode of On Stage Now this month, but I must preface that it is a somber one.

Several weeks ago, it was announced on Twitter that a Remixer from the Overclocked Remix community had passed away. His name was Daniel Woodyer, aka PirateCrab, a heavy metal guitarist who performed covers and remixes of pop songs and video game music. He released several singles and collaborated on a few albums, and his YouTube channel displayed his impressive and playful guitar skills and singing ability.

PirateCrab is our featured guest for this month’s episode of “On Stage Now”. We’ll be playing a list of tracks he performed, some that were mentioned on Twitter by those who knew him or collaborated with them.

Prepare to enjoy these tracks… and yes, these tracks go to 11.
