‘Luna 18’ and breaking with the sound of the past

“The album is not called that because of my relationship with the moon. It is true that I like the Moon because I associate it with the night, it is a stage of the day that I quite enjoy. But Moon 18 “It is a place in which I reflect, like the place that summarizes my entire last stage, my last two years here in Madrid.”

“Everything has come out in a very organic way, since I left freestyle, everything has been like a step of going from sounds at first a little more urban, then a little more pop and now a little more rock. I have always done the same. which I have enjoyed doing and I feel like I am being true to myself. It hasn’t been anything about searching for a specific sound, but something that comes out organically in the studio and well, one day I decided to make a rock album for that reason.

“This album is a little more risky album but I don’t consider that I’m doing anything super alternative but coming from where I come from it’s a little more risky. And both I and the people around me know it. I’m happy because it’s an album that I wanted to make, a sound that I wanted to find and that in the end I think I’ve found.. Which I think I’m going to defend very well live.”

Public opinion

“Evidently you think about people liking you, I make the music for myself but there is always that ringing sound in your ear that tells you ‘fuck it, the more people you reach the better.’ And here in Spain there are sounds that resonate more and other sounds that resonate less.but hey, taking that into account, it’s something I live with but it doesn’t affect my way of working in any way.”

I’m obsessed with ticket sales, I do ask my manager that every now and then.

The meaning of the scar

The scar is, as everyone knows, a symbol, because something has happened to you before. You normally see a scar and imagine a story. With the scar I wanted to represent all the pain, so to speak, of the past. All those experiences that end up leaving their mark on you. Some that make you grow and others that you regret. And that’s what I wanted to represent with the scar.”

“If I’m honest, the scar apart from that, has a purely aesthetic meaning. Because it is true that it does not grow or decrease during the video clips or anything. The scar is to represent the past and also pay tribute to who I am. me today after all those experiences.”

Is there anything from the Boy in the Park on this album?

I continue to sing to a certain extent to my friends, to my environment, to my city. But maybe instead of singing it with the joy that I sang it in the Boy in the Park, I sing it from a slightly darker perspective.”

“All my music is in line with my evolution as a person then although I have changed and I am a different person. But I still have what I am inside and that’s it. Of course there is and remains a lot of the park’s children.”
