SAN FRANCISCO, June 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- San Francisco Bay Area Latin-pop crossover artist Razteria will release "Me gusta estar sola" (I like being alone) on June 23rd, 2022. The song was produced by veteran musician and producer Dave Shul(Ex-Michael Franti & Spearhead, Los Mocosos). It features Jay Laneon drums (from RatDog, Bob Weir, Sausage, Alphabet Soup, Freaky Executives, Primus and more). It was mixed by Razteria and mastered by Trakworx.
"Me gusta estar sola," a psychedelic rock song, was written in the winter of 2022 during Razteria's solitary moments over the holiday season. It reflects the intense contemplation and sheer enjoyment of solitude that is necessary to the creative process. However, this state is a double edged sword, as in solitude you sacrifice moments together with friends and family. The intense dynamics and instrumentation recall classics like Queen and Jefferson Airplane. The single will launch on all major digital platforms (Pre-save link). Also to launch on June 23rd is the single's official music video shot by up and coming film-maker Alex Zajieck, assisted by Hannie Saba and edited by Sheila Da Silva (Youtube Channel).
