I hope the goodwill I have from my belated discovery of her last album isn't shaping my judgement of this, which is extremely favourable.
― boxedjoy, Wednesday, 27 November 2013 23:31 (ten years ago) link
I thought she was going to take a lengthy break from making music, but now I can't remember how long ago I read that. Apparently a while ago.
This sounds great!

I'm loving this, perhaps not as much as "Luz de Piedra de Luna", but almost.

Holy shit, I guess I've been overlooking this thread. This is great.
Also, I guess it goes without saying that this is another Canada directed video.

Amazing! Feel that Espada was the moment I fully jumped aboard the Mena-bus.

just what i needed for the summer

Dunno if she's ready yet to release another album, so I'll just go ahead and predict this track lands at #45 in the year-end poll.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 4 June 2014 17:43 (nine years ago) link
New album in September I think.

This is fantastic. Very happy to hear their is a new album coming out soon but would be even happier if it came out in time for the summer.

I love that synth solo.

I just now noticed she did a guest vocal on a Dapuntobeat single in 2012. It's deece.

espada's been out for a long time, too, if you haven't heard that. or maybe you just don't love it.
― karl...arlk...rlka...lkar..., Thursday, 16 October 2014 19:23 (nine years ago) link
Trademark space launch present and correct. So stoked for the album.

Whole album up on Spotify.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 28 October 2014 13:23 (nine years ago) link
whole album is damn good but wow "sincronía, pegaso" especially
― dyl, Tuesday, 28 October 2014 23:08 (nine years ago) link
This album is so good. Think I already like it more than Mena.
― Kitchen Person, Wednesday, 29 October 2014 02:18 (nine years ago) link
The last minute of "Sicronia, Pegaso" is glorious bleep-bleep. If I were going out dancing as often as I did five years ago, I'd turn that last minute into a communal face off.

i have recently realized "espada" is one of the best songs in years
― dyl, Wednesday, 29 October 2014 06:05 (nine years ago) link
listened to this like 5 times, v much in love
― een, Wednesday, 29 October 2014 11:59 (nine years ago) link
Excellent sounding album, I find it more consistent that Mena
― nxd, Wednesday, 29 October 2014 12:04 (nine years ago) link
i wish i could speak spanish; i feel like that would only compound my enjoyment of this. last minute of "la joya" is some of the most breathtaking music of this decade
― uxorious gazumping (monotony), Wednesday, 29 October 2014 12:31 (nine years ago) link
production here is great and i think the songwriting took a big step forward too, love this record so far
― adam, Wednesday, 29 October 2014 14:50 (nine years ago) link
To be honest, I felt a little disappointed by this on first listen. It *sounds* great, but the songs weren't as immediately memorable as those on Mena. And it's sort of ... one-note, maybe? But I'm looking forward to digging into it more, so that its hooks and nuances reveal themselves.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 29 October 2014 14:58 (nine years ago) link
love it, good video too

new EP out, "I. Entusiasmo", which features "Flashback", "Corazón Astral" and "Dos", plus 2 new tracks. Hopefully the "I" part of the title means there's a "II" soon.

new record Nocturna is out today, featuring a number of already-released songs together with a few new ones. All-killer no-filler on first contact

is it better than the last one? didn't get into that at all
― groovemaaan, Monday, 3 October 2022 01:38 (one year ago) link
It wouldn't have surprised as a follow-up to Otra Era
More highlights:- When Javiera says "Hola" at the start of a song- The Radiorama-level of Italo overdrive on "Sombra" (is that a lion-roar sound effect?)
