JOEL PIERLUISI-CORDERO AKA MR. DANGER GARDEN
Born March 4, 1986, in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Joel Pierluisi-Cordero (a.k.a. Mr. Danger Garden) began playing the bongos at age four and got his first drum set at age five.
Joel got his start at age 10 when he performed a live solo with cousin Jorge at the Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine “Evolution World Tour” at Coliseo Roberto Clemente in Puerto Rico. After getting a crowd of 12,000 people on their feet two nights in a row while playing the bongos, Joel became obsessed with performing on stage.
By age 12 he could play drums, percussion, bass, piano, and guitar.
He founded his first band, Umoja, with cousin Jorge in the year 2000. Umoja, the African term for Unity, was a reggae band that played for six years in Puerto Rico, releasing an album in 2003 that included radio hit No puedo olvidarte. Joel was the lead singer, drummer, composer and music director of Umoja, sharing stage with Gondwana, Sizzla, Midnite, Burning Spear, Jarabe de Palo, Sean Paul, Steel Pulse, Cultura Profética, and more.
In 2003 he played the drums for Daddy Yankee at House of Blues in Orlando and at Coliseo Roberto Clemente in Puerto Rico. Going back to where it all began was an amazing experience that led to many other opportunities.
In 2004 Joel played the drums once again at Coliseo Roberto Clemente, this time for Zion & Lennox. That same year, he also played drums for Vico C, Tego Calderon, and others.
Later that year he began his college career in marketing at the University of Puerto Rico while performing an average of three shows-a-week with his reggae band Umoja all over the island.
In 2007 he was called to play the drums for Wisin & Yandel’s concert in Venezuela. He had not much interest in reggaeton, but the experience of traveling and meeting new places caught his attention to this oportunity. After performing with the duo in their East-West tour across the US, all the way from Madison Square Garden in New York to the Staples Center in Los Angeles, he was hired as their official drummer and toured with them for four years. He played in Venezuela, México, Costa Rica, Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, USA, Panama, Dominican Republic, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, El Salvador, Guatemala, Paris, Barcelona, Milan, Rome, and more.
Between travels while touring with Wisin & Yandel, Joel kept producing his music, sound design for commercials, and developing different musical arrangements in his home recording studio.
In 2008 he worked as music producer for Sebastian Foglia’s lounge projects: Foglia Lounge House Sound and Foglia Spread the News.
In 2010 he wanted to start his own electronic music project and got together with Sebastian Foglia to create the group “Foglia”. He took Sebastian’s lounge project and gave it an upbeat, electro dance twist with a lot of stage energy.
In 2011, they released the hit single Dime que hay and were the opening band for 30 Seconds to Mars at Coliseo de Puerto Rico and for Cut Copy and Panda at the Coors Light Indie Fest in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. Foglia traveled to Miami where they electrified the crowds at Bardot and Pax with their unique sound, and were interviewed by CNN, Telemundo, NBC, Terra and Latinblah. In 2012 Joel and Sebastián went on separate journeys.
Joel started his own project called DANGER GARDEN (DNGR GRDN). Finally no mainstream, no opinions about the music from anyone else, just his music exactly the way he wanted it. DNGR GRDN is a mix of all the production influences in Joel’s life. His early reggae roots and electro dance influences brought Joel his own sound within the Indie-dance / House music genres. With a live show that consists of a “live production set” where Mr. Danger brings his production equipment to the stage, and improvises every sound creating a special live set for his audience on every show infused by his percussion background.
His live shows as well as his daily production tasks may include collaborations with different producers, musicians, singers, dj’s, and many other talented friends from the industry.

David “Don Rimx” Sepulveda was born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico. His family lived in the public housing development, Nemesio R Canales, who in the 90s had a very high crime rate. Drugs and gun violence were a part of his everyday life. Through his parents watchful eyes Don Rimx was kept on the straight and narrow. They noticed his interest in drawing at a young age and nurtured it by enrolling him in weekend art classes at the local art school. He later received his diploma from the Central High School of Visual Arts and went on to continue his education at the Escuela de Artes Plasticas. Upon finishing his studies, he dedicated himself to incorporating the various techniques of classic art into urban art, with a specialization in murals. Lorenzo Homar, Jose Alicea, Rafael Tufino, Rembrandt, and Joaquin Sorolla, are just a few of the influences one see’s in the line work, color treatment and poetic imagery of his pieces.
In 2009, Don Rimx moved to Brooklyn, NY. Life in the big city had a profound affect on his latest works, from the different cultures and styles to the many textures and materials. The skeletal structures explore the synthesis of man and his city. Resulting in works of art comprised of rigidity and personality.
“16 Barras” Brooklyn was an exploration of this connection. Murals were painted throughout Brooklyn, of randomly chosen residents, interlaced with one number and word, that when put in numerical order, created a poem. It was meant to inspire people to search for the pieces to the puzzle, to get to know their borough and its residents. “16 Barras” received media coverage in the NY Daily News and various online publications. The concept was later extended to Puerto Rico and featured in the annual art event ‘La Campechada.’
Don’s also participated in national and international urban beautification projects like Artists for Israel, Los Muros Hablan New York & Puerto Rico and Art Basel Miami in the Wynwood Design District. Additionally he’s painted many murals around Brooklyn, at the Bushwick Collective and at the former 5Pointz Queens.
Don’s individual style bridged the gap between the streets and corporate America. His work caught the eye of a progressive commercial real estate developer and was commissioned to produce several grand scale murals in the Bryant Park area of NYC. The synthesis of the two resulted in breathtaking works of art. An arrangement so unique it received media coverage in the NY Times.
In the summer of 2014, Don Rimx and his family made the move to Miami Florida. The warm climate, Latino culture and large arts presence really attracted the artist, making him feel a little closer to home. Since the move Don was invited to the Brooklyn Museum as the guest artist for National Hispanic Heritage Month and has worked on a couple of projects with the Jordan sneaker brand. In the Miami area, he was one of the featured artists in the Cars Meet Art exhibit of the Miami Auto Show. And is currently one of 15 artists participating in the Beck’s Urban Canvas.
Don Rimx’s unparalleled artistry has set him apart from the rest; a classically trained fine artist, graffiti purist, grand scale muralist and new school tattoo artist. No matter the medium, he’s guaranteed to continue doing what he loves for many years to come.
