“Nena” is Spanish pop-rock; it’s like a thread left hanging, reaching back to something long gone, slightly dusted over yet still deeply touching. In the sound, there’s an echo of the 2000s, as if, for a moment, we’ve returned to that era where everything seemed simpler, but no less dramatic.
“Nena” sounds like it’s been slightly shaken up, with a hint of rust and carelessness — and it fits perfectly. The gritty guitar riffs aren’t a flaw but more of a signature. Ricci Nostra doesn’t strive for perfection; instead, he revels in this slightly raw, nostalgic atmosphere. The vocals are gripping, restrained — each beat feels weighed, as if not to disrupt that faint chill up your spine. A perfect example of how a sound can be a little rough around the edges yet leave a warm aftertaste, lingering in your mind for a long time.
