Víctor Manuelle, presents his long-awaited new album entitled Retromàntico. This concept album is inspired by the era of romantic salsa and promises to captivate lovers of this genre with its nostalgic and passionate repertoire available on all digital platforms.

The first single from the album is the hit “Otra Noche Más“, in which he was able to make a historic collaboration with Frankie Ruiz and which currently is on the top of the charts  of popularity in the United States, Peru, Colombia and Puerto Rico. Thanks to this, he marks another achievement in his career by being the salsa artist with the most top 10 hits on Billboard’s Tropical Airplay chart.

“The fact the audience is enjoying this new single is very significant to me. We wanted to join my voice with Frankie’s to pay tribute to the legacy of one of my favorites,” the interpreter said.

The album has 10 carefully selected songs and has the collaboration of great performers such as Tito Nieves in “Cosas del Amor“, a song that became popular in the nineties. The unparalleled voice of Johnny Rivera accompanies Víctor Manuelle in “Casi Perfecta“.

“Vamos a romper la noche“, composed by legendary songwriter, Omar Alfanno, is a song full of complicity and rhythm in collaboration with his musical godfather, Gilberto Santa Rosa. Together with Willie González, “No queria Mentir” and the great Maelo Ruiz joins in “Me fallaron los dos” .

Other singles that are part of Retromàntico are: “En 4 dìas “, “Los hombres tambien lloran“, “Otro Intento” and “Si volviera Jesus” a composition by Jorge Luis Piloto, which narrates a reflection on how humanity would behave, if Jesus were as a man today.

“Each friend who accompanied me on this album contributed his own style and energy to the songs, creating a diverse and exciting album. It has been a great privilege to collaborate with these great talents. I’m looking forward  so that the world can finally hear it,” said Víctor Manuelle.

Retromàntico is more than a salsa album, it is an emotional journey through the nostalgia and romance that characterize this genre. With his unique voice and his unmistakable style, Víctor Manuelle promises to conquer the hearts of his followers once again and reaffirm himself as one of the greatest exponents of tropical music.

“This production is going back to when I started, while celebrating the genre that I love and that I will always defend. Each song on this album is imbued with emotions and memories that I hope resonate in the hearts of those who listen to it,” the singer-songwriter added.

Retromàntico is an impeccable production, with a surround sound, which will transport listeners to the time where romance and passion were interpenetrated through salsa.

Another important fact of this new project of the veteran salsero is the creation of his new portal www.retromantico.com. Where fans will find exclusive content, information about his tour and much more.

Retromántico is an album that recovers the essence and feeling of the romantic salsa that marked Latin music so much. With this project, Víctor Manuelle revives emotional moments to conquer salsa around the world.

 A nostalgic journey through their roots. This is how Jesús, Julio and Bibi describe “Baja California”, the new single of the renewed pop stage of Reik.

It is easy to miss a place like Mexicali, Baja California, says the group. “We try to go as much as we can. But I think the thing you miss the most is our people, our family, our friends”, claimed Bibi. “This song is, above all, about that”.

The official video was directed by the North American cinematographer Ry Shorosky, who captures the perfect atmosphere of a red evening talking a walk around the beaches of Baja California. An audiovisual star within the universe the trio has created with their clips.

Written by Julio Ramírez, Pambo, Matthew Rey and Ismael Cano Jr, “Baja California” releases the light in less than a month from the group’s previous single: “Abril”. The song placed itself on the #5 in the pop chart of the radio in Mexico, has more than 3.3 million streams in platforms worldwide; its music video has more than 1 million views on YouTube. 

“As persons, as song writers and as a group, we need and want to sound like our pop again”, said JesúsNavarro for La Crónica. 

Recently the group announced their Panorama tour. With this tour Reik will go through 25 cities of the United States starting next May.

A conversation about death, beside a cooler with ice and a lot of vulnerability, served as the midwife during the birth of one of the most profound songs in contemporary Mexican music. This refers to “Cuando Llegue El Día” (When the Day Comes), the track by Joss Favela and Gera MX released today.

“We were concerned about what happens when you leave this earthly plane and wanted to address it together,” Joss Favela recalled while discussing “Cuando Llegue El Día” (When the Day Comes). “I think we managed to express it in a positive way because at the end of the day, it’s beautiful to have progressed, to have met many people, to have a family and friends who love you and who will remember you in a positive way.”

The song celebrates the artist’s life and reminds them for their legacy, music, art, and the person they were. “The message is very positive, and it’s a message of love for all the people who follow us, for our family, for our friends that we will all die one day, everyone who is here,” he added.

The song was recorded in studios in Jalisco and Sinaloa, “CuandoLlegue El Día” combines Gera MX’s rap with Joss Favela’s immense talent in regional Mexican music. It also features traditional instruments of the genre, such as accordion, bajo quinto, tololoche, and more, creating a magical encounter of two worlds that are closer than many thought.

The video, directed by Abelardo Báez and produced by Pavel Nordahl, takes the concept of the “day of death” a bit further, o something deeper, because regardless of who we are in life, our roots, tastes and attachments, we are all going towards the same place. Visually, this was reflected through two different world’s: the classic car that represents the urban world and the horse that represents the regional world, and adding the romanticism of Mexican culture with death and the constant relationship between the living and the loved ones who have already departed.

“Cuando Llegue El Día” is now availabe on all digital platforms, Thi is the second track from his upcoming EP named Mis Compas Vol 1, which has stellar collaborations from great exponents of the music scene in México. The EP is expected to be release in May 2024 alongside Sony Music Latin.
