Captain Ahab – the musicians behind the robotic love song Zoe Graystone was dancing to in Friday’s episode, Gravedancing – has decided to release it to download for free! Get “Was Love” at their bandcamp.com site.

For more information on how that song and others from Gravedancing came to be, check out Bear McCreary’s blog. He has a fascinating look at how the themes of Caprica are developed along with clips of the songs as he describes them to listen to. One highlight is the song from the radio in Sam Adama’s car and the eerie way that the instruments from Caprica were blended in to underscore Amanda Graystone’s climbing dread.

Also a better quality version of Sam Adama’s ringtone has been uploaded as well as the version of Clarice Willow’s ringtone that aired on Friday.

We’re only 4 episodes in and the internet is already teeming with buzz on Syfy’s hit Caprica! For those who didn’t see last night’s episode, Syfy has made Gravedancing available to watch. Also available is the enhanced version with podcast (episode commentary) alongside.

If you have friends that need to catch up or maybe you’re a little confused yourself, Syfy has released a recap video:

We also have a new promotional video,
The End of Everything:

And a preview of the next episode,
There is Another Sky:

If anyone was concerned that the show was in danger of being cancelled, worry no more! Airlock Alpha has an interview with Mark Stern, Syfy’s EVP of original programming, saying that they will be backing Caprica through and through.

In fact, Caprica’s fame has reached an Earth friend of ours, The New York Times. The article goes into depth about the old car models used on Caprica and how they add ambience to the show. Richard Hudolin, the production designer, mentions that a mixing of old and new technologies was also used on Battlestar Galactica.

These cars have been prominent in the life of Amanda Graystone, first whisking her away to saftey after her announcement at the memorial ceremony and later bringing her in harms way during a ride home from Baxter Sarno’s talk show. The actress who plays Amanda, Paula Malcomson, was recently interviewed by tvstar.com. During the interview she talks about how playing a character on Caprica relates to real life.

If you want to bring Caprica in to your real life you may be in luck! Cast and crew members from Caprica including Ronald D. Moore, David Eick, Paula Malcomson, Polly Walker, Alessandra Torresani, Magda Apanowicz and Sasha Roiz will be appearing at the Paley Center in NYC for a special Caprica Panel on March 17 at 6:30pm. Tickets go on sale to the general public Wednesday.

Be sure to tune in next week for the revival of Tamara Adama played by Genevieve Buechner!
