Rosalía is back—and she’s making sure the world knows it. The Spanish superstar has just dropped her highly anticipated single “Berghain,” featuring Björk and Yves Tumor, as the first taste of her upcoming album “LUX.” But that’s not all: she’s set to make a spectacular live comeback at the LOS40 Music Awards in Valencia on November 7, the very day “LUX” hits the shelves.
A New Era Begins: “Berghain” Sets the Tone
Rosalía’s latest single, “Berghain,” is already making waves for its bold fusion of classical music, techno, and spiritual themes. The track, named after Berlin’s iconic techno club, opens with Rosalía singing in German—a first for the artist—and features a lush orchestral arrangement recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra.
The music video, directed by Nicolás Méndez and produced by Barcelona’s CANADA, follows Rosalía and a full orchestra through the streets of Warsaw, Poland. Symbolism abounds: from a cross of Jesus on her shoes to heart-shaped jewels and hospital stretchers, the visuals mirror the song’s exploration of heartbreak and spiritual solace.
Collaborators on “Berghain” include Icelandic legend Björk and experimental artist Yves Tumor, both of whom add their unique flair to the track. The single’s release was teased with sheet music on Rosalía’s Substack and a viral social media campaign, sparking a flurry of fan covers and speculation worldwide.
“LUX”: Rosalía’s Most Ambitious Album Yet
“LUX,” Rosalía’s fourth studio album, promises to be her most ambitious project to date. The album features 15 tracks in digital format and 18 on vinyl and CD, with collaborations from a diverse roster including Carminho, Estrella Morente, Silvia Pérez Cruz, and the Escolania de Montserrat choir.
Thematically, “LUX” delves into feminine mysticism, transformation, and spirituality, tracing a journey between illusion and loss, faith and individuality. The album’s orchestral elements and choral arrangements signal a bold evolution from the reggaeton-infused “Motomami” era that catapulted Rosalía to global stardom.
A Triumphant Return to the Stage
Rosalía’s live comeback is set for November 7 at the Roig Arena in Valencia, where she’ll open the LOS40 Music Awards with a show designed exclusively for the occasion. This marks her first major performance in over a year and coincides with the worldwide release of “LUX”.
The LOS40 Music Awards, celebrating their 20th edition, will feature a star-studded lineup including Ed Sheeran, Aitana, Feid, Nicky Jam, and more. Rosalía’s return is especially poignant for Valencia, as she previously volunteered in the region following last year’s devastating DANA storm.
What This Means for Rosalía—and Pop Music
Rosalía’s fearless experimentation and genre-blending have already redefined the boundaries of Latin and global pop. With “LUX,” she’s doubling down on her artistic vision, weaving together classical, electronic, and flamenco influences with deeply personal storytelling.
Her collaboration with icons like Björk signals a new level of international ambition, while her choice to debut the album live at one of Spain’s biggest music events underscores her status as a cultural force.
Key Takeaways:- “Berghain” is out now, with a visually stunning video and high-profile collaborations.
- “LUX” drops November 7, promising a transformative listening experience.
- Rosalía’s live return at the LOS40 Music Awards is set to be one of the year’s most talked-about performances.
Fans and critics alike are watching closely—if “Berghain” is any indication, Rosalía’s new era is poised to be her most electrifying yet.
