During the intro to “La Playa” the mood is set with the arrival of a beefy bassline that’s accompanied by slick guitar riffs, and then… The underlying sultry vibe comes to life as soon as we’re teased by Santi’s soothing vocals.
Santi Forget manages to combine contemporary R&B with a Soulful Latin American influence to craft her a distinct sound that feels like a breath of fresh air. The majority of the track is in Spanish and this actually accentuates the romantic nature of “La Playa” especially since her velvet-smooth vocal delivery exudes one hell of a seductive aura.
