Used To Go Dancing
Video
Caspa Codina releases a new single 'Used To Go Dancing' on June 9th 2008 through Stopstart Records, a week prior to the self-titled debut album Caspa Codina, June 16. Caspa Codina is the creation of Gabriel Olegavich- founder, producer and co-writer of electro- punk band Spektrum.
Used To Go Dancing started life as a basic demo which Caspa had planned to send to some US R'n'B artists. It got such good reactions, and people liked the vocal so much, that it ended up as a lead track on the album.
Lyrically, the song is a futuristic mystery about a femme fatale who never lets Caspa out. There are allusions to the myth of 'Bluebeard's Castle', where Caspa is locked away, with lots of other 'boyfriends' maybe -or possibly she is turned to stone; broke his heart & now he daren't got out.
Remixes come from Flash Atkins, the super hero who had his gravy days in the late 70s and early 80s saving the world with his ability to manipulate sound. Unfortunately he's fallen on hard times and can be spotted in the less salubrious parts of London, often stoned or drunk on borrowed money. Flash is also the atler-ego of producer Ben Davis (Paper Recordings / Shaboom / The Bionics). Ben has just started a new label, We are Woodville, with flagship artists Karoshi Bros, and is recording an album due for release in early 2009.
