Melancholia / Melodia

2024 • 7inch single • Veego Records

On the occasion of the Record Store Day 2024, Veego Records presents a new double A-side single by MWC that compiles the recent digitally released covers on Peppino di Capri’s “Melancholia” from the mid-60s and Giannis Floriniotis’ “Melodia” from the early 80s. On the sleeves, 2 photos of photos the band discovered by accident and decided to rework, as part of the project.

Melodia

2024 • Veego Records • Digital single

“Melodia” was nominated for the stormy national final of the 1980 Eurovision Song Contest, performed by Yannis Floriniotis and the Garbi sisters. The song was not selected, Anna Vissi travelled to Holland with “Oto-Stop” and “Melodia” was never officially released, surviving in an archive video of an ERT tribute show to Floriniotis. My Wet Calvin, revisiting yet another rare moment in domestic music history, deconstruct the disco original at a lower tempo, like a 45 that, by mistake, was played at 33 rpm.

Melancholie

2023 • Veego Records • Digital single

“Melancholie”, originally by german sensation Die Bambis, was a huge success in our country by Peppino Di Capri back in 1965, that great that he even sang it in Greek. The lyrics, “Melancholy of September…”, accurately capture the Greek spirit, after the end of summer and vacations. The start of school, university exams, a new beginning in some other city or maybe another country will carry the marks of summer with them. Like the humidity that brings a forgotten, weathered greek tourism poster from the 70s at a travel agency. The classic song has never been covered by any alternative band, and this is a huge challenge for My Wet Calvin. The sad vocals of the Athenian duo combined with 80s synths make it sound like an electric, autumn rain.
