Likewise, Solizantana says Anfisa guided her with “peace and tranquillity” in the journey of creating her track, allowing her to go with her instincts instead of aiming for perfection or a “proper arrangement.” Commenting on the track Anfisa says, “You can easily feel where she takes her inspiration from: nature, the sea, the sun, her home city. This is something we have in common. The real power of the track though is the fact that it allows you to discover Soli through it, if you listen carefully it’s almost as if you’re transferred into Soli’s realm.”
Solizantana and ManuRat collaborated closely together over the course of several months, weaving their styles and stories together, with Solizantana developing a track that represented her journey of creative discovery, and ManuRat creating a piece of cover art that brings the tracks to life.
“Being on this project with ManuRat was a blessing,” Solizantana says. “I learned a lot from her and got to know her perspectives in life and creation. We worked super close on everything to do with the song, the cover art, the scenery, the merch, the colours, and the styles. I think it was so cool to blend both our styles and knowledge in this project about our city Medellín.”
“This project impacted me for many reasons, one is that it made me feel that what I do as a musician and artist can be communicated to diverse groups of people,” says Solizantana. “Going into this career without knowing the outcomes you’re really just flying without knowing where you’ll land, I do this because it’s what’s natural to me and makes me feel alive. This project made me feel more confident and grateful, that the world is full of possibilities.”
