help Los Ángeles FAQ
Was Los Ángeles really released in 2010?
No. Rosalía's debut studio album was released in 2017 and was made in close collaboration with guitarist, arranger, and producer Raül Refree.
Does Los Ángeles contain the electronic production heard on El Mal Querer?
Los Ángeles is much more austere, centering Rosalía's voice and Refree's guitar rather than electronic beats. The more overt mixture of flamenco and contemporary pop production arrived on El Mal Querer in 2018.
Why are death and mourning recurring themes on Los Ángeles?
The album reinterprets traditional songs and compositions connected by images of death, grief, and loss. Tracks such as "Catalina" and "De Plata" make the record feel closer to a thematic song cycle than a conventional pop debut.
Is "La Hija de Juan Simón" on Rosalía's Los Ángeles a new song?
It is Rosalía and Raül Refree's interpretation of an older Spanish song associated with the 1935 film La hija de Juan Simón. That reliance on existing repertoire is central to Los Ángeles, which primarily presents radical arrangements of flamenco and Spanish song.
