Lucrecia Dalt - "Contenida" from the 2022 album \\xa1Ay! on RVNG Intl.

On her eighth and latest LP\\xa0\\xa1Ay!, Colombian-born, Berlin-based artist\\xa0Lucrecia Dalt\\xa0celebrates both her homeland\\xa0and outer space. Infusing childhood influences of\\xa0bolero, mambo, merengue, and salsa into her synth-heavy soundscapes, she tells the story of\\xa0Preta, an extraterrestrial being who lands on\\xa0Earth. The ten-track album examines themes of love, time, and on today\'s Song of the Day, existence.

"A falling progression, vocals harmonizing, a jazzy something\\u2026 Why not?," she describes to The Fader in a track-by-track. "Playing this piece live, it\\u2019s become one of my favorites from the album. Fun to perform, fun to dance to. Can you imagine being bodiless and suddenly feeling trapped, like theatrical containment? Irreversible\\u2026"
