Hahaha! When I edit these videos later it makes me laugh how much I talk with my hands. It's something I don't really notice while it's happening.
Here's the latest! Oh, and here's a link to the video I mention about the tree. This video made me think and reevaluate sharing music online.

Hey guys! Here's a video for the song I shared recently, "My Mother". Recording this very simple video ended up being so difficult. hahaha! I was plagued by Murphy's Law...
Computer problems, camera ran out of battery... and a whole list! haha! Thankfully, it worked out in the end. :)
Hope you are doing great!

This is the Twitch Sub Song this month, but I wanted to share it here as well in case it's something you guys like.
It's a song I've loved since I was a kid. To this day, one of the most moving songs I know. Come to think of it... it may have been the first song to ever make me cry.
Maybe that's why it's so deeply etched in my memory.
Here's a link to download!

Tomorrowwwwww... I'm getting this hair treatment to remove frizz. Very important. And then a haircut. And I have a new shirt. So, you're not even gonna recognize me tomorrow.
Hehehe! Tomorrow I'm streaming the Witcher 3 at 3-ish pm and I'm going to be giving away a signed soundtrack and Geralt's wolf necklace! Stop by if you are able.
Thanks for watching! Malu

I love this song, so much. The lyrics are in Spanish, but just close your eyes and listen to the melody.
You'll also hear the super loud air conditioning. Sorry about that, it's the audio straight from the camera. No added effects or fixes.
I love how the melody slowly builds throughout the verse and then rises in the chorus. In a way, it reminds me of O Danny Boy because of that. How the chorus of that song also just soars.
Being able to sing in that place (Museo del O...

Out of all the videos I have collected over the years, this has to be one of my top 5. Maybe even top 3?
This is a summary of the rehearsal before the CD Release Party for All of the Above. I feel it shows songs in a more exposed way than once you see/hear them in a venue with lights and a crowd.
It was a chance to have my two worlds collide. Berklee and Monterrey. My bandmates and Berklee friends Matt, Jack, Ian and Alex flew to Monterrey to perform at this show. <3

I think my favorite thing about watching old videos is that in the back of my mind, I remember all sorts of details of those moments.
Sometimes, I remember old insecurities I used to have... And some that I still struggle with. Usually, the first thing I notice is that "back then" (whenever the video was filmed) I felt so fat and huge and obese and blah, blah, blah. And I see myself in the videos and realized how warped my self-image was. I looked normal. Maybe not skinny, but certainly ...

We must first perform an undo before we can move forward with the Starbound song. Hehehe!

Oops. This video is long. hahaha! :D The tl;dr is I really liked Leon's master best :)
A lot of you guys selected C or D as your favorites. C was my master, D was Leon's. Although I do prefer Leon's myself, it makes me feel like a million bucks that what I made was something you liked. <3 Woooo!
In the video, I chat about my impressions on each master, with a few examples where I try to explain/compare good and bad things.
As a reference, the mystery maste...

Finally. It exists. It's live. hahaha! I've wanted to make a full version of this song for a long time.
We've had such a good day today, pampering Thor for his 7th birthday.
Here's a link to download the song, as a thank you for making it possible for me to write and record this. <3
Endless hugs and more soon,
Malu
Did I say that out loud?
Hahahaha!
Short preview of a new video I will be posting on YouTube today. <3
See you really soon,
Malu
Are you ready for this? Hehehe! It's time to finally start.
I've uploaded 5 versions of I Follow the Moon. As a game, I thought it could be fun if you listened and tried to guess which version is which...
Options are
- Original Mix
- My own mastering attempt
- Soundlab (quick turnover human mastering)
- Landr (algorithm mastering)
- Leon Zervos mastering pro
Take the test! There's a prize if you get the answers right! Hahaha. Oh, man. I've been having ...

Hey guys! How are you doing? Things here are good. It's a cool, rainy day and I'm hanging out with Thor, who is feeling much better. Here's today's check-in video!
More soon!
Thank you,

Here's the latest this week!
Hopefully, I'll see you Wednesday for Office Hours!

You guuuuuuuys. Here's a trailer for a VR game called Moss, scored by composer Jason Graves (Dead Space, Until Dawn). He invited me to sing on this song which is part of the soundtrack for Moss and ended up being used in the launch trailer!
The game looks adorable! <3
Working with Jason was a treat, like always. <3 He's one of those people that always makes everyone he works with feel good about themselves. It's a quality that I admire and appreciate very much.

Aaaaand, here is a Q&A where I answer the questions you guys asked in a previous post! It turned out a little longer than expected. Hehehe! But, the questions were awesome and I wanted to do my best to answer them.
Hope you are having a lovely weekend!
See you tomorrow for the Monday check-in.
Hugs,
Malu
Aaaand, here's the musical update. :) Including the reveal of what this month's extra song will be! :D
Thank you for listening. And for all your beautiful messages about Thor. <3
Hugs!
Malu
Hey, guys!
I decided to split this week's check-in into two parts. Today, it's an update on Thor's health. Tomorrow, I'll be sharing some musical updates.
Thanks for watching. Many, many hugs from Mexico.
Love,
Malu
