In an interview with the company’s official website, WWE composer Jim Johnston, who helped to create ChaChaLaLa, the theme song for WWE superstar Fandango discussed the origins of the theme which has become so popular within the past week.
“We wanted a piece of music that said dance as opposed to a piece of music that was good to dance to. I thought the rhythm that was most associated with dance that most people would know would be the cha-cha. So I went with that. As always, there’s no particular formula other than I just pick up a guitar or sit down at the piano and start poking away at stuff until something mysteriously sounds like, ‘Oh yeah, that’s it.’”
