Laskaar has a new single out. The artist closes the chapter of his album TRANSFORMA with a new single, “Materialista,” and it sounds nothing like where he started.
If his last work was defined by raw, unfeeling electronica, this track goes in the opposite direction. It feels warmer. It breathes. The shift marks a move toward something more organic and human, a side of his music that until now stayed hidden behind the machines.
But “Materialista” was not always like this. The song started as something else entirely. It only found its true shape because of what happened when Laskaar played it live. On stage, the track grew teeth. It took on a new, visceral energy that the studio version missed. The crowd reacted to something the recording lacked. So instead of forcing the original vision, Laskaar made a choice: he chased the moment.
He brought that live energy back into the studio. The result captures the magic of the performance, not the perfection of the production. The new arrangement is built on a foundation of real instruments. You can hear the drums, the bass, the keyboards. Backing vocals fill out the space. Trumpets punch through. It sounds like a band playing together in a room, not a producer clicking alone on a laptop.
Laskaar has always moved between genres. Soul, contemporary R&B, trap, house, drum and bass, electronica. “Materialista” adds another layer to that range. It reflects what happens when musicians, audience, and the moment all meet.
