"Me pregunto dónde fue que yo fui mal?"
Which serves a song better: spontaneity or meticulous planning? Straightforward or poetic lyrics? Layers of instrumentation or a sure and steady guitar?
In this episode, Emmeline sits down with independent Latin pop artist Alex O'aiza to tackle these questions and more through the lens of his newest single, "YNMA." Alex shares his collaborative process--and brings his guitarist and dear friend Alex Whitcomb along for the ride! They also talk about prioritizing creative collaboration, cowriting with and without producers, approaching songwriting sessions in different ways, allowing yourself to be exploratory in composition and production, and trusting that--if you show up!--the magic will happen.
