Marti drops off See You Again (Volverte a Ver)
Martí is a bilingual pop artist based in Los Angeles. Born in Manizales Colombia, Martí moved to the US at just three years old, where he grew up in Illinois. His unique and intoxicating sound is the result of wanting to bring together his love for both English and Spanish artists to create something which dances between electronic and Latin elements.
Martí’s music is vulnerable and honest, as he opens up about his experiences navigating being a young gay immigrant man in Los Angeles, as well as coming from a small town, breakups, relationships and hookups. The artist confides, “I also write about being an anxious depressive person and how I internalize a lot of feelings.” Connecting with his listeners on a deep and personal level, Martí encourages you to push through the uncomfortable times, whilst reminding you that sometimes it's ok to not be ok.
His latest single “See You Again (Volverte a Ver)” narrates a time when Martí was looking for someone to fill the space that his ex left in his life, as he romanticizes random hookups and encounters. The synth-laden track shimmers with Martí’s ethereal vocals that glide over a dancey beat and melodic electronic flares.
Then there is “So Are You Over Me”, which sees Martí reflecting on a past relationship, feeling stuck in it and yet unable to pull the plug. The versatile track switches between harsh electronic parts and intimate soft spoken sections, representing the mix of emotions the songwriter was experiencing at the time.
Both songs are produced and engineered by Michael Lipp (OYLS), who was indispensable to the entire Martí project. As he welcomes listeners into his world, Martí shares, “The music is inspired by my love for pop, indie pop, and Latin music that I have grown up around, as well as EDM I listened to growing up in Illinois, acts like Louis the Child, ODESZA, Lorde, Two Door Cinema Club and Daddy Yankee.” 2024 is set to be an exciting year for Martí, kicking off with “See You Again (Volverte a Ver)”.
