Whether it’s winter or summer where you are, there’s never a bad time to bring some musical sunshine into your life. Spanish vocalist Levop & motorcycle champion-and-artist Christian Meyer have got what you need in the form of their glorious new single ‘Sacala Al Sol’. The accompanying music video starring both artists delivers the ultimate summer vibes. Watch it, here.
Brimming with good vibes from the first note, this Latin firecracker is a delight from start to finish. Sumptuous vocals float over muted pads, and a sexy trap/R&B beat is teased to get the hips moving — but the track takes you by surprise, unexpectedly switching to an Afrobeat / reggaeton rhythm as the chorus beckons. The infectious refrain is bolstered by sweet melodic sounds and warm bass thrusts, combining beautifully to transport you right to the beach. It’s the sound of partying by the sea, running in the sand with friends, sipping cocktails and finding holiday romance.
“’Sacala Al Sol is a song inspired by everyday events which transmits joy and optimism” explains Meyer. “Good vibes are so necessary in these moments that we are living. Also ’Sacala Al Sol’ means exposing yourself and chasing your dreams.” The history of the song stretches back a couple of years, as Levop explains. “I started writing this song during my stay in Maryland in the summer of 2018, and I finished it with Christian in Spain, between mountain strolls and cooking sessions. Now it is for the whole world.” Well marinated and matured, this beautiful song has been worth the wait.
Christian Meyer is one of the pioneers of freestyle MX motorsport, with many trophies and firsts to his name over the years. His move into music was an unexpected one, but on the strength of this wonderful single, it’s been a wise one. Classically-trained Spanish-born singer Levop makes for the perfect accompaniment.
