Los Bitchos unveil disco influenced new song La Bomba

Los Bitchos release their first music of 2024.

Los Bitchos have officially unveiled the ‘fun song’ which they first aired during last summer’s festival season.

“The beginning stabs are what came to me (Serra) first as I was cooking in my kitchen,” the band’s guitarist has said of La Bomba.

There’s something quite heroic and powerful about the opening guitar tone and the stabs underneath them. The twangy guitar tone cuts through the chaotic landscape of claps, pumping disco bassline and dreamy swirling synth sounds. The disco era influence is quite evident in this song, and I think the bassline sets the tone perfectly for this.

“Structurally the song delivers straight into a chorus (as Nile Rogers said, why wait). We wanted to keep this as close to a classic pop structure as possible, everything straight to the point.”

“The cherries on top are the little ping pong drum sounds (think Ring My Bell, Anita Ward) – they just make the track go off and totally emulate the feelings of euphoria and pure energy running through it.”
