Sofía Valdés - How's That Working Out? (ft. Cuco)
Panamanian-born singer Sofía Valdés comes together with Mexican-American artist Cuco for the fun and dreamy, "How's That Working Out?" "Cuco has been such a joy to work with. The songs were already mixed and mastered when we decided to add a feature and the first in mind was Cuco, so I texted him the song and the next day he was at the studio. It's cool to see someone like Cuco showing up for other Latin artists who don't have a big platform yet. We had written other songs before while I was home in Panama through Facetime. I don't think those will see the light of day but I'm so happy this is our first - first of many hopefully" she told HOLA!.

Oal – Amarilys

Bridging centuries and drawing parallels with his teenage experiences, Oal weaves urban rhythms and sonic influences from Japan. “The song is about the immediate emotional aftermath of splitting from someone you were intensely in love with. It's also loosely based on an experience of mine, but I think many people can likely relate to the feelings of sadness, anger, nostalgia, and loss put forward by the song,” Oal said about the release.
