María José Llergo – la luz
Cordoba-born, Madrid-based artist María José Llergo first stepped into the spotlight with her incredible single ‘Niña De Las Dunas’ back in 2018. Since then the rising Flamenco singer has gone onto release several equally impressive singles in the form of ‘Me Miras Pero No Me Ves’, ‘Nana Del Mediterráneo’ and ‘El Péndulo’. This past year, Llergo unveiled her first body of work, the glorious seven-track EP ‘Sanación’ which is produced by Sevillian artist LOST TWIN. The project is the perfect embodiment of Llergo’s enchanting vocals and poetic writing which float through the atmospheric and captivating soundscapes.
That’s exactly the case with ‘La Luz’, the most recent offering which María José Llergo performs for COLORS. Like the rest of Llergo’s discography, the song stays true to traditional Spanish influences whilst welcoming a refreshing contemporary twist, creating a sound that is both authentic and original. On ‘La Luz’, a collaboration with Didi Gutman and $kyhook, Llergo lays down her stunning musings over electronic-led Flamenco beats that twist and turn their way throughout the track’s three-minute-plus lifespan.
