Galician singer-songwriter Mariagrep is bringing a blast from the past with her new EP, "Detox". The 24-year-old artist, whose real name is Maria Gallego, began her career on YouTube in 2018, releasing her debut album "Si un día" the following year.
But her latest release marks a departure from the pop melancholy of her first album, instead drawing inspiration from indie dance, pop punk and the MTV sound of the late 90s and early 2000s. As a result, "Detox" is described in a press release as "as close to Avril Lavigne as to the Sugababes, as well as to contemporary references of hyperpop or the generational mainstream of Olivia Rodrigo and Doja Cat".
One of the standout tracks on the EP is the collaboration with Canary Island artist Ant Cosmos on "Modo Superstar", which has been described as a kind of alternative reggaeton. The track is a prime example of Mariagrep's sonic versatility and ability to connect with the urban and electric universes of her generation.
Producer Javier Carreño also played a crucial role in the creation of "Detox", helping to solidify Mariagrep and Carreño's reputation as a hit-making team. The EP's singles, including "Marinero", "Tirita", "Parpadeando" and "Por eso", have all been well-received by audiences.
Overall, "Detox" is a faithful reflection of Mariagrep's evolution as an artist and a testament to her ability to blend the sounds of the past with the musical trends of the present.
