Remember when CSS were good? It was a happy time. Then in 2008, after two years of riding a monumental wave of success, they unleashed upon the world the horribly forgettable Donkey. Music fans were sad.
Well, praise be, as Copacabana Club have picked up where CSS' success tailed off. Hailing from Paraná, they've perfected the sunny, disco-led punky pop that our favourite Brazilian exports used to be so brilliant at. As if that wasn't enough good news, they're also giving away their first EP away for free! Download it HERE.
The King Of The Night EP features 6 tracks, all within the same vein, but none the worse for it. Just Do It and Come Back are probably the best, being the most disco/funk led tracks. King Of The Night is a bit punkier, sounding similar to early material by The Rapture. It's Us is a little more raw, but still retains the same sound of the other material on the EP. Throw in a couple of danced-up remixes of It's Us and Just Do It respectively (the former being particularly dancetastic) and you've done pretty well given the price, i.e. nothing.
Bonde Do Role endorsed newcomer Bo$ In Drama has also remixed Just Do It in his trademark 80's synth disco style, and it's quite something. Download that from the ever brilliant Bigstereo blog HERE.
Finally, watch the sparkly, glittery and stop-motion video for their single here. Copacabana Club, the soundtrack to your summer.
