Unforgettable, breathtaking, and pure magic—My Alma Latina by Michellar is a must-listen experience.
The hardest working woman in the music industry, Michellar, once again captivates her listeners with a work that is undeniably a reflection of her heart and soul. Her latest release, My Alma Latina, further solidifies her place as an artist who is as emotionally driven as she is musically talented. The EP, My Alma Latina is not just a collection of songs; it’s an experience, one that immerses you in her deep connection to both her Spanish and Filipino heritage, offering a rich blend of Latin rhythms and evocative storytelling that promises to resonate long after it’s over.
Kicking off with "California Fields," the EP’s opener immediately sets the tone with a gorgeous fusion of soft strumming acoustic guitars and lush, sweeping violins. The opening chords seem to shimmer in the air, almost as if the music itself is alive, and when the violins come in, they strike with such intensity they seem to pierce the very atmosphere. It’s an orchestra-level performance, leaving you in awe of how seamlessly the strings, glowing with emotion, carry this stunning melody forward. The sound isn’t just heard, it’s felt. The composition dances through the air like a dream, and Michellar’s vocal performance takes it to new heights, delivering a level of expression that evokes visions of a Broadway stage. Every note is delivered with the kind of passion that could only come from a place of deep personal connection.
Her voice sparkles with warmth and a rare sweetness that is effortlessly captivating. We are such fans and have such a deep adoration for her performances that we believe her voice is something the world needs to experience. Additionally, her lyrics feel like they were written not only by her, but only for her. Her soft breaking notes, with a delicate staccato, then twirl in the air right in front of you, feeling like a gift. This song isn't just a piece of music; it’s a living, breathing embodiment of emotion that demands to be played on repeat.
Following that is "Ave Maria (feat. Lloyd Miller)", a breathtaking rendition that pulls back the curtain on Michellar’s unparalleled ability to convey vulnerability through her music. The track is spine-tingling, with every note carrying a beautiful live essence. There’s an authenticity here that transcends the digital world of auto-tune and perfection, a rawness that comes from working with live musicians who fully know each other’s rhythms and nuances. This performance is a tribute not just to the song but to music itself, delivered with a reverence that can only come from true love for the art. Lloyd Miller, the vocalist on this track, delivers a performance that is overwhelmingly captivating. His commanding delivery, paired with effortless ease, mesmerizes you with his magical voice. His long-held notes are to die for, creating an experience that feels as if the sound is wrapping around you in an intimate embrace. Together, Michellar and Miller have captured something truly special, and this is a song you won’t want to miss.
Next comes "The Deep" (feat. Christina Rntd), a piece that takes a dramatic turn, introducing a powerful new voice and a different emotional layer. Christina Rntd’s vocal delivery is raw and gripping, drawing us into a whirlwind of emotions that leaves us hanging on every word. The interplay between her haunting tone and the sharp, crystal-clear guitar work is electrifying, creating an atmosphere where the listener is completely immersed. It’s a rollercoaster of emotions, and even without the aid of visual storytelling, the voice carries enough weight to transport us to another world. You can feel the angst and the desperation in Rntd’s voice, and it’s a thrilling display of artistic depth.
The entire EP is nothing short of a masterpiece. Michellar’s creative journey has culminated in an album that is as moving as it is beautifully crafted.
