Latin Remix of the Week: Nathy Peluso’s ‘Club Grasa’ EP

In our Latin Remix of the Week series, we spotlight remixes that the Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors deem to be exceptional and distinct from the rest. We might not publish a review every week. This is our selection today.

Following her latest album, Grasa, Nathy Peluso debuts Club Grasa, an eight-track EP that turbocharges half of the album’s original 16 tracks with a dance floor-ready twist. In her first remix project, she harnesses the talents of international electronic producers to reinvent these tracks. Elements of rap, salsa, soul and acoustic melodies are reinterpreted through the lenses of these diverse artists, reflecting a global EDM aesthetic.

“This whole process has been an experiment and a super fun journey for me,” Nathy Peluso shared in a press release. “I’ve handed over my music to producers from the international clubbing scene, giving them total freedom to reinterpret it from its core.”

She also describes Club Grasa as a project that pushes her creative boundaries through collaboration, embodying the album’s intent for listeners to experience the “music in their own unique ways.”

The lineup includes Spain’s nusar3000, TRISTÁN!, Ideas Radicales, and Phoac; Argentina’s Garoto 3000 and Tayhana — who is also Mexican; Colombia’s CRRDR, and the U.K.’s Mura Masa.

The Grammy-winning British producer Mura Masa brings a glitchy electro touch to “Menina,” featuring Spanish-Brazilian artist Lua de Santana. Mura Masa, born Alex Crossen, shared his enthusiasm. “Nathy is really wonderful and Grasa is such a great album with a real sonic identity,” he said in a press release. “I wanted to take what she and Lua de Santana had done with the original and recontextualize those conceptual elements into a more club-friendly setting without compromising that identity.”

The remixes showcase a range of styles and influences. Nusar3000 infuses “Real” with a more adrenaline-pumping approach, while TRISTÁN!’s synth-futurist sound transforms “Corleone.” Tayhana’s remix of “Aprender a Amar” contrasts with Garoto 3000’s bouncy approach to “Manhattan.” PHOAC and Merca Bae explore Caribbean-industrial sounds in their respective remixes, with CRRDR blending tribal and Latin club rhythms in “Todo Roto.”
