Capricorn is an Italian disco group led by producer Claudio Simonetti – who also is a part of the band Goblin along with Giancarlo Meo. This project was an early influence in Italian dance music with an electronic dance sound fused with synthetic strings. “Capricorn” is a beat-funky track which brings inhabitants from ‘Capricorn’ to find themselves an earth woman to return to their galaxy where there are none. The keyboard riffs are which stand out here much like a well-crafted 70’s funk song. Pulsating sounds and plucking bass guitars unite with a raw-edged vocal which falls into a soft chorus in a very effective manner. This release from 1980 is definitely one for those who prefer funk and adventure in their dance music.
I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental of “Capricorn” and applied a bongo driven beat track to the ReStructure Mix. The keyboard riffs are segmented in a new intro and the breaks begin the song and play out over this memorable classic.
