Peruvian singer-songwriter La Zorra Zapata blends electronic and organic elements, creating captivating soundscapes.
La Zorra Zapata is a singer-songwriter from Lima whose style fuses pop, rock, and electronic music, incorporating Latin American influences.
Since her debut in 2020 with a self-titled album, she has gained recognition in the music scene, releasing works like “Acantilados” in 2022 and her most recent album “Quema o Ilumina” last week, for which she has established herself in Mexico.
Her music is distinguished by experimentation and an introspective approach, addressing themes of vulnerability and authenticity.
“Quema o Ilumina” is her third album, featuring eight tracks that transform mistakes into a catalyst for creativity. With an ethereal “Intro,” the album immerses the listener in an introspective atmosphere.
La Zorra combines her electric guitar with minimalist electronic sounds, creating a contrast that enriches her proposal. The title track reflects this duality, presenting itself as an intimate ballad that elevates to an almost celestial level.
Other highlights include “El invento,” which emphasizes vulnerability through a minimalist melodic structure, and “Lluvia y Nieve,” which celebrates her Latin American identity and connection with artists as Mon Rivera. “Oficio,” in collaboration with EV, addresses the pressure of expectations in the pursuit of authenticity.
The album’s production is a collective collaboration that blends electronic and organic elements, creating captivating soundscapes. With “Quema o Ilumina,” La Zorra redefines her relationship with mistakes and offers a space for vulnerability.
