Colombian icon Ela Minus bares her soul to the listener with new album DÍA, an electro-tastic journey of hardship, reflection, and perseverance.
Through sharing her depth of self with such raw honesty, Ela Minus has produced a beautifully vulnerable narrative album. It is clear how much care and attention has gone into crafting this listening experience – every sound is curated, purposeful and deliberate. This is evident from the opening track, ‘Abrir Monte’, explained by Ela Minus as:
“…a phrase commonly used where I’m from, referring to the act of opening paths through dense foliage…That is what making this record felt like, opening up new paths inward and outward, continuing to delve further through unexpected territory.”
DÍA is now available to stream – for a little taste, here’s the lead single ‘Broken’.
