Emaflu, Chilean singer and multi-instrumentalist, offers her lush new song, “El Rythm.” Gentle like low-tide ocean ripples, this song creates a sense of calm. A psychedelic band jams underneath her rich vocals. The psychotropic harmony shifts underneath Emaflu’s honeylike voice. “El Rythm” emulates this otherworldly peace of swimming just underneath the surface of water. Sunlight refracts and shines through the waves, and Emaflu sings the soundtrack of the ocean.

In addition to “Turn Up Neto MAster test,” he uploaded “SOUL MUSIC loud,” “MASSAI fixd,” and three others, none of which can be found anywhere else.
