Almudena López disguises as Cristina Georgina, in the shape of a romantic heroine. Key singer of Las Escarlatinas and Mate, Almudena is besides a prominent flute player, a reputed architect and a talented designer/ illustrator. She is undoubtedly someone with something genuine and personal to say. More importantly this timid Audrey Hepburn-delicate chanteuse is willing to redefine herself as one of the most beautiful singing voices in indiepop. Let's hope she can remain under the radar for a long time. “Mapa mundi” is her first solo album but it has all the necessary components for eternal alchemy and a sonic palette of pop numbers that make you think of Isobel Campbell/Gentle Waves, La Buena Vida, Beatles, Coralie Clement, Nico, Mate, Escarlatinas, Go- Betweens, Ephemera or Kiki D’aki. In few words, pure pop music under the usual blue-blooded production of Ramón Leal and Mateo Guiscafré. Cristina’s voice is marvelous, her harmonies warm, and her approach devoid of crass commercialism. You will find no studio tricks here, just the best levels of pop polish, dizzying heights of charm and a reliance on good songwriting and tunes. In this eccentric and evocative guitar pop, you will discover something pure, peaceful and delicately quaint too. Like an old kitchen table draped with a red and white tablecloth sitting in a room with bright turquoise walls.
