Metal & Ca - Superavit mp3 download

Thozius

METAL Y CA (aka METAL & CA, METAL Y CA.) was Curro Rodriguez (aka El Humano Mecano; composer, synthesisers, vocals), Fernando Cañada (bass, synthesisers, computer, vocals), Fernando Cabello (sax, vocals, and co-founder of Discos Lollipop), with female vocal support by Ana Villacorta and Ana Valenzuela, from Madrid, Spain, active between 1981 and 1984. They released three 7”s (“Datos”, 1982; “Velocidad”, 1983; “Oriente”, 1984) before they disbanded in 1984. Their music was mainly electronic driven by a programmable Korg KR-55 (the only one Anna knows of apart from Italy’s Central Unit’s KR-55) with lots playful synthesiser playing (Korg MS-20) and a little bass and guitar here and there, as well as a sax which isn’t too annoying here as it fits to the atmosphere of the tracks in which it’s been used. The tracks are quite fast and joyful, inspired by Rock’n’Roll (clear proof: “Velocidad”), but do not worry, this is pure brilliant tecnopop espanol and together with Aviador Dro they were at the forefront of the movement. Actually many tracks are too similar to early Aviador Dro (“El último superviviente”, “La sala de control”). And then, there is “Humano”, of course, alone worth the buy and one the best dark minimal electro songs ever made! So “Superavit” compiles all three 7”s plus adding four additional METAL Y CA tracks (two remixes and two tracks from 1981), and two further tracks by EL HUMANO MECANO, Curro’s solo project from 1980. Pure tecnopop cult from Spain, a must-have.
