EVOLUXION

Don’t let the armor fool you. Beyond the heroic artist portrait of DannyLux that graces its cover, *EVOLUXION* only further serves to showcase the vulnerability of this sad sierreño star. Along the twisting path of this nearly hour-and-a-half-long journey, he bears the damage of lost love with a certain familiarity on “ATRAPADO” and via genre-expanding opportunities like “LA LLUVIA.” Deeply relatable moments like “MALDITO ALCOHOL” and the cleverly executed “FERXXO 100” will no doubt soothe the tortured souls of his expanding fanbase, for whom his words provide not so much comfort as a sense of community. To that end, he bounces between the romantic sentiments and gestures of “CIUDAD DEL SOL” and the wrecked ruminations of “AMAR Y PERDER” with surprising ease, perhaps getting somewhat used to the volatility that defines young love. As with his prior album *DLUX*, he brings other talented artists into the mix to excavate this emotional minefield. Frequent collaborators Eslabon Armado share his anxieties on the standout “ME CAMBIASTE,” while Gabito Ballesteros seeks shelter from heartbreak amid luxury on “DIME QUÉ HAY QUE HACER.”
