Mabe Fratti shares “Kravitz”
Mabe Fratti has announced her new album Sentir Que No Sabes will be released on June 28th, 2024, via Unheard Of Hope. The Guatemala-native, Mexico City-based Fratti–recently profiled by Pitchfork–has also shared two singles from the album: “Kravitz,” out now across DSPs, and “Pantalla azul,” out now exclusively via a Emanuel Juarez-directed video. Anchored by brilliant plucked cello that acts as a bassline, “Kravitz” introduces a staple of the record: the clever brass stabs, whistles, parps, and other interjections that paint a canvas of traffic in a city–all resulting in a postmodern, widescreen sound. “It’s a song about the sensation of not knowing where the opinions come from and the chicken or egg question: do they come from outside? Do they come from inside? Also, who wants to listen to these opinions? Who actually listens to them?” explains Fratti.
