A few weeks ago we discovered a new facet of Míriam (LISASINSON) with the addictive “Llámame”, under the moniker LABORDE, a special project that opens new paths in the singer’s registers. It is a personal initiative, open to much more contemporary references and influences, and as proof we have this cover. Míriam takes C. TANGANA’s song, “Nunca Estoy”, to Catalan; she gives it a sad, dreamy air; she locks it up in a room full of naïve sounds and broken dreams, and opens the doors for everyone who is looking for something with a different sound, something that saves us, like music has always done.
With Pépe working on the technical aspects and production, this new digital release comes with a video directed by Victoria Herranz and Mar Espinosa (and yes, María, who completes the initial LISASINSON combo also participates). In the video, with a resolution that evokes older cameras and aims to highlight the songs melancholy, we can see Míriam on the El Saler beach, combing her hair in the waves and letting herself be carried by the sea.
There is no doubt that this is just the beginning of a new, promising, personal, and totally unique proposal. Stay tuned.
LABORDE BIOGRAPHY: Behind LABORDE is Miriam, the singer and guitarist of our beloved LISASINSON, who takes on this project with a radically different style than the one she has with the quartet from Valencia. With an openly confessional, melancholic, intimate spirit, she sends messages to people through her own lyrics, with which anyone could identify. Somewhere between rude and sweet. Twenty-first century romanticism, as she herself defines it.
And to get there, she navigates through contemporary styles, between bedroom pop and hyperpop, somehow tied to people like PUTOCHINOMARICÓN, REBE, CARIÑO, AVA AKIRA, KERO KERO BONITO and 100 GECS, but giving it all the personality of a unique project, splashed with production full of details, including trap, reggaeton, commercial pop, and even industrial sounds. Her first release, in October 2020, is “Llámame”, a song that perfectly defines this unique and special universe. There is a contrast between the contemporary sounds - fresh, fun, colorful - and the lyrics - melancholy, frustrated, spiteful and tremendously intimate. And Miriam’s voice is pure sweetness, which makes the emotions come rushing in.
Collaborating with Pépe, Nawan, TURIAN BOYand her own bandmates from LISASINSON, LABORDE on a project that is fresh and imaginative, sensitive and intimate. It is an exercise in intimacy, in communication, in sonic contact, raw.
