Cabballero biography

Cabballero was created by the musician Ja'Ma (Jama Johnson). The project was produced by Cabballero, R. Ribeiroa (Ronald Bähr) and Ricco Raggazzi. Rumors said the project featured the voices of the rapper A. Godwin and the female vocalist Linda Temple. This was false. According to the booklet of the album, the members were Serena M "Pearl" (rap, background vocals, performing), Kristy B (aka Kristina Barth : background vocals, performing), Zlata K "Swat" (background vocals, performing, dancer). The singles were released under the Shift Music label. Actually the voices belonged to the studio vocalists Christina Safrany and Sara Pola.

The group started back in 1994 starting with the euro-trance style hit Hymn which was a cover version of the 80s group Ultra Vox (originally released in 27th November 1982). Hymn was released in France under the Do It Music label. It entered Top 10 in Israel (more precisely # 4) and Germany, and peaked # 1 in Spain and Italy. After this great success the produces decided to keep on making euro-versions to the Ultra Vox hits.

The next in roll was Dancing With Tears In My Eyes, released in 1994, which also was top ten in Israel (# 4 once again), Spain, Italy (# 2) and Germany. It was so successful that once again a remixes CD was released (with a Rave remix, a Tears remix, a Goa remix and a Girls remix).

After that in 1995 came the 3rd single, Love Is A Shield, a cover of the Camouflage group (a German Depeche Mode-like band), a great eurodance hit which was # 1 in Israel dance chart, # 1 in Italy, # 5 in Spain and entered the Top 20 in Germany. The CD included a B-side entitled Mental Trance. Then they released their debut album in 1995, called The Elements.

The album included the original euro hip-hop title Teardrops and a feature track Lover
With An Attitude
. These 2 tracks were re-released under K-Town Records, launching the start of the Girl Talk project, which featured Cabballero's original dancers Pearl, Zlata and Kristy B, along with Colin Eley. Lover With An Attitude received much airplay and became a radio hit prompting a remix and U.S. release in 1999

The next hit was Faith Is Rising which wasn't as big a hit but still entered Top 40 in Germany, Spain, Austria, Italy and Belgium.

The last single from the album was released in the beginning of 1996. It was a European hit but failed elsewhere in the world. This single was called Nanaya and was sampled from Israel national anthem.

Cabballero took the success of his name and live performances throughout Europe to new heights with a follow-up from his track Teardrops into managing other groups which resulted in creating a new sub label for Shift Music called K-Town Records. This is how they brought the first successful European hip-hop group, Down Low, to the German public. The Cabballero team also did remixes for projects such as Ryan Paris, Sonic Beat - I Can Fly, Samira's When I Look Into Your Eyes or Unlimited Nation's single Move Your Body.

2001 : Cabballero came back and released Dancing With Tears In My Eyes 2 on the 30th October.
