Overview
- Rivera presented the project during the fourth Vida Huamantla festival in Tlaxcala, aligning the release with the holiday’s commemorations.
- The EP blends mariachi and other traditional Mexican sounds with contemporary production, adding sierreño textures and even a tumbado touch.
- Its six tracks include “Larga Vida,” “No Es Para Menos,” “Almas,” “Alguien,” “Calavera,” and a duet with Ana Bárbara titled “Cuento de Nunca Acabar.”
- Rivera describes “Almas” as his deepest tribute to his father and reiterates that Mexican remembrance focuses on celebrating life rather than death.
- Coverage notes Rivera’s aim to carry this tradition to international audiences, with a large tour and a second installment of the project mentioned as plans expected to be detailed in coming months.
