Hear Maria Usbeck’s new EP Canciones De Amor track “Luz”
The curtain has lifted once more on the captivating world of Maria Usbeck, the Ecuadorian-born, Brooklyn-based dream-pop artist who has been enjoying a well-deserved hiatus. After a long absence, Usbeck has returned with fresh sonic material, marking a vibrant new chapter in her musical journey.
Last year, she released Naturaleza, an album that served as the first new release for the artist in six years, setting a wonderfully atmospheric tone for her return. The buzz surrounding this work solidified her place as an artist whose sound blends dreamy introspection with lush, memorable melodies.
But the creative momentum didn’t stop there. Yesterday, Usbeck unveiled exciting plans for her next project: Canciones De Amor, a new EP that promises to explore even deeper emotional territories. This upcoming release has been crafted with an exceptional team of musicians, notably featuring contributions from Wild Nothing’s Jack Tatum, adding layers of sophisticated texture to her signature sound.
The first taste of this new era is immediately captivating. The opening track of the EP, titled “Luz,” instantly hooks the listener. It manages to fuse mellow, floaty jazz tones with expansive, expensive-sounding synthpop, creating a sparkling and irresistible atmosphere that perfectly captures Usbeck’s ethereal sensibility.
This new work demonstrates an exciting evolution for the artist, proving that her blend of dream-pop and sophisticated instrumentation continues to evolve into something uniquely compelling. Fans are eagerly anticipating the full depth of Canciones De Amor and the beautiful sonic landscape it offers.
