Rosalía delivers a stunning first sample from her upcoming Columbia album, LUX, in the form of the Nicolás Méndez-directed, Warsaw-set video for “Berghain,” which features vocals from Björk and Yves Tumor.
In the highly surreal clip, Rosalía is enveloped first by orchestra musicians and then a menagerie of animals as she moves from her apartment to a crowded bus, a jewelry store and a doctor’s office. The track is described by Columbia as “the grand orchestral centerpiece” of the upcoming project’s second movement — “an operatic journey across languages and emotion” that “expands from soft introspection to sweeping cinematic power.”
LUX will be released Nov. 7. It was recorded with the London Symphonic Orchestra conducted by Daníel Bjarnason and features such vocalists as Carminho, Estrella Morente, Silvia Pérez Cruz, the Escolania de Montserrat i Cor Cambra Palau de la Música Catalana and Yahritza.
The album will feature three exclusive tracks on its CD and vinyl editions, which can be pre-ordered here. It’s the followup to 2022’s MOTOMAMI, which topped charts in Spain and Portugal and reached No. 1 on Billboard‘s Latin Pop Albums chart.
