Silverio: "Yepa Yepa Yepa"

I came across a song and artist this past week thanks to an accidental switch to one of the digital cable music channels we never listen to. Silverio was the artist (from Mexico, not the famous Italian flamenco singer) and the song — “Yepa Yepa Yepa” — was a hyper, driving electronica song distantly reminiscent of Yello, Emergency Broadcast Network, or some other 80s soundtrack band.

The power of the Intarweb led me to this wonderful live one-man performance of the song — the frenetic, spirited execution of which is best described as drum machines and pre-programmed effects being played during a disco strip-tease. The screenshot here is actually the host reacting:

Glorious.

The song is available via iTunes, and there is more to be found there.

Sometimes accidents are a very good thing. :)
