Maybe some people are too young to remember, but during the late 80’s ABBA was a very uncool band, a cheesy thing from the 70’s. No one was doing ABBA covers, except for some synthpop/ electropop bands like Information Society, Men Without Hats and, later, Erasure. Strangely, for synthpop fans too young to remember the originals, these were the first glimpses of ABBA’s master songwriting. Much later, the whole A*Teens/ Mamma Mia craze started and ABBA became fashionable again for the masses. This is not only an ABBA tribute, it’s a tribute to all these pioneer synthpop and electropop artists that covered ABBA when no one was doing that.

As usual, Softcore Express’ sound combines a classic and a modern electropop sounds and, this time, it is the wonderful singer Polette AKA Paula Varela (an amazing vocalist and sessionist who sung countless jingles and shared stages with Shakira and Deep Purple among many others) the one who sings, making this electro tribute a perfect ABBA listening experience.

I Feel Love (Single) is the tenth release (counting EPs, albums and singles) by electropop act from Buenos Aires Canal Pop, and the first one featuring the wonderful Rosario-born singer Josefina Aufranc, who is also a model.

“I want Canal Pop to sound like a mix of Daft Punk and Abba”, said Emiliano Canal, the man behind Canal Pop. “I want a modern sound, but I also love the early electro sound, the old Hi-NRG and Italo disco sound. These were fantastic styles of music, much more original that rock.That’s why we covered ‘I Feel Love’, Giorgio Moroder started a revolution and music was changed forever. But no one took this electronic music seriously when it started”.

Canal Pop feat. Josefina Aufranc – Come To My World
ES 2286

Come To My World is the first single taken from the upcoming Canal Pop album, featuring singer, actress and model Josefina Aufranc. The album will be an homage to the early electro disco music that started with Donna Summer’s “I Feel Love”, produced by Giorgio Moroder in 1977.

The single contains the title track and a killer remix by Fr3ak. Both of them are instantly recognizable as Canal Pop songs, respecting the formula of releasing very catchy electropop songs with carefully produced vocal arrangements. Josefina Aufranc provides crystal- clear powerful vocals.

“I want Canal Pop to sound like a mix of Daft Punk and Abba”, said Emiliano Canal, the man behind Canal Pop. “I want a modern sound, but I also love the early electro sound, the old Hi-NRG and Italo disco sound. These were fantastic styles of music, much more original that rock. That’s why we covered ‘I Feel Love’, Giorgio Moroder started a revolution and music was changed forever.

Canal Pop - Electricity

A new Canal Pop song, a version of “How Can You Expect To Be Taken Seriously” will be available as part of the compilation Prism – A Tribute To Pet Shop Boys, released by the electropop music blog Electrozombies, from Germany. The song features vocals by Argentinean singer Arabescos, in her first collaboration with Canal Pop. 

The official page for the tribute is here. It features 22 tracks, all of them cover versions of Pet Shop Boys songs performed by some of the best artists in the electropop/ synthpop/ synthwave international underground scene (names like Parralox, Junksista, Machinista, Technique, etc.). As usual, Canal Pop is the only artist from Argentina.

Prism

Canal Pop feat. Arabescos - How Can You Expect To Be Taken Seriously

Canal Pop is the name chosen by the electropop producer (and label owner) Emiliano Canal, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, to release his material. 

Canal Pop's music can be described as "catchy pop songs with intelligent lyrics", and this is because Emiliano has a remarkable ear for catchy choruses and hit melodies, the kind of music that sticks to your head after hearing it on the radio. 

Emiliano also writes the lyrics, and while English is not his native language (people speak Spanish in Argentina) his lyrics are full of play of words and they usually tell stories.

Emiliano doesn't really sing, so Canal Pop features different singers that take care of vocals. Gaby Laguzzi recorded several songs for the We Never Play Live In Buenos Aires EP. Bea (Connena, from New York City) recorded the vocals for the catchy single "Ecstatic Days". In 2009 Canal Pop and Lara Sambert made An Electro Tribute To Oasis, covering hits by the Gallagher brothers' band (their version of "Stand By Me" was chosen "song of the day" at Popjustice.com, the most influential portal about pop music in the UK). Polette (a session singer who shared stages with Shakira and Deep Purple) recorded the vocals for the EP High Class Girls & Lo Fi Boys (2012) and for the 2014 single "I Want You (To Be My Baby)". Singer and model Josefina Aufranc sung on the singles “I Feel Love” and "Come To My World" (2015).
