Xicu's beginnings were an introspective and melodic journey with his works 'Sol' and 'BLAU', where delicacy and reflection were the common threads. A year later, the artist presented '22' (Delirics, 2023), a darker and more powerful EP that explored the labyrinths of love and heartbreak, with notable collaborations such as Julieta, Teuma Thug (P.A.W.N Gang) and Galgo Lento.With 'Sacrificis', his most recent album, released in September and presented live on January 16 at La Nau in Barcelona, Xicu took a step forward in his musical evolution. This work marked a more experimental stage in his career, where the word took center stage and music became the inseparable companion of the stories he told. ‘Sacrifices’ is a dense and raw album, where the artist explores the concept of “sacrifice” in different areas: for music, for family, for relationships and for oneself. Despite its apparent darkness, the album hides an inner light that is revealed as the listener delves into his personal universe.
After this album, Xicu gave us ‘AYE’, a single that reflects on his style, his identity and how these elements influence his love relationships.Now, he presents us with ‘+Temps’, a piece that explores the nostalgia of a relationship broken by the lack of time and reviews the mistakes of the past. A song full of emotion that puts an end to the sonic journey of ‘Sacrifices’. With influences from artists such as Rusowsky, Ralphie Choo and Tristán!, Xicu fuses styles ranging from experimental pop to Urban and Jersey Club, creating a unique soundscape that invites us to travel through a range of emotions.Now, with ‘+Temps’, he takes us even further in this sonic and emotional exploration, which we can see live at festivals as renowned as Vida and Primavera Sound (Primavera Pro)!
