English Version:
Q: How is the creative process when making a record, what is usually first? Do you write the lyrics and then go from there or is it based on a bass/instrumental line?
A: We usually start with a guitar and voice melody and from there we add more layers, we modify the structure of the song ... Lately we are composing a lot through recording demos, to see how the song evolves being able to listen to it "from outside"
Q: Is there anyone who always writes lyrics, or do all members contribute?
A: El Pau is the main lyricist of Marialluïsa, although the other members sometimes add some part.
Q: How did you come up with the “Drama or Calm” riff from 2:00 to 2:30? It is definitely one of my favorites!
A: Piggy rock and roll moment playing at the venue!
Q: Are there other bands from Catalonia / Spain that you recommend to people?
A: There is a lot of different music that is made in Catalonia very good!

Q: How would you describe the sound you are looking for with the new music and what are some of the inspirations?
A: We are currently starting to prepare new songs. We take inspiration from what surrounds us and new and old music that we discover. The ones that have come out have a fresher air at the moment!
