Marly Marly – I'd like
Amidst the abundance of complex sound productions these days, a proposal as simple as the one presented by this Mexican artist is surprising (and curious that it is surprising). Everything in this song is built from just two elements, an acoustic guitar and a voice, and the secret is simple, it's right there in front of you (or rather, in your ears): The voice is not only good (very good) but it has its own particular dramatic timbre, capable of combining a feeling of tenderness and, at the same time, empowerment. Everything you hear feels honest and direct, and that's why it works. Furthermore, the video, with its style reminiscent of old-fashioned vacation films (the kind shot on Super 8 cameras), is perfectly suited to crafting a simple yet moving story.
Ati Lane – Mary Full
Lately, we've emphasized the need to pay attention to the new circle of Peruvian female artists, given the variety and intensity of their projects. One of the most striking examples is Solange Santa Cruz, better known in the music scene as Ati Lane, whom we can say, perhaps boldly, who has found his own ways of making folk music, resulting in an increasingly interesting and appealing catalog of songs. Among its sonic qualities, we can highlight the brilliant use of reverb, a vital element for enjoying this production. Furthermore, this new single is accompanied by a very distinctive, finely crafted video, whose editing, without unnecessary embellishments or excessive use of resources, is ingenious and effective. Ati Lane—don't forget this name—could be making waves in the future.
The Tenacious – Here I go
We've been following this Colombian artist's career for quite some time, and we can say that this is the moment when her work has truly won us over. After an intense period of experimentation and exploration, perhaps it's time to celebrate that María Alexandra Vallejo, LaTenaz, has reached the point where we love her performances and melodies the most., since they show maturity in composition and sufficient freedom of experimentation both in their lyrics and in their vocal work, This suggests that her work will attract greater attention from potential audiences. This is also evident in her videos, where she strives to faithfully reflect who she is today, forging her own path and finding her own unique way of telling her story.
