On her surreal, sci-fi and decidedly romantic new album, electronic artist Lucrecia Dalt crafts an alien narrative drawing inspiration from the genres of her youth.

. The musician was possessed by an"eruption of wild, creative energy," but when the virus arrived she was forced to slow down. It felt like the right moment, Dalt says, to pursue an album of tropical rhythms that would eventually require"very patient studio time." Each day the Colombian sat at her keyboard, listening, reflecting, and playing the music of her childhood."I had more of this introspective time," she says.

"The best way for me to describe it would be the memory of cozy meetings at home with my uncles, the family gathering and talking. The music was just there — very present," Dalt says. Her grandfather played maracas and sang; Dalt's mother played guitar. In a broader sense, she says,"Music was encouraged but it wasn't imposed ... I always thought of it as something fun.", not just in its delightfully absurdist story of an alien, but the arrangements themselves.
