María José Llergo x HEREU
Let go of judgment and evaluation, and simply try to imagine it. Imagine a thread of light extending from you, gently alighting in an unexpected place in the world.
That thread now becomes a bridge connecting you to that place. The precious essence within you travels along the thread, gently seeping into the land. And the unique atmosphere and memories of that land leave a quiet breath within you.
Raül Refree & El niño de Elche x HEREU
These are the songs we gathered to explore ideas before starting work on the collection. There is no special intention or clear connection between them. It is simply a playlist created to find a "space for thought" from which to weave the work from within ourselves.

’This is what I call my home in Menorca.
A feeling like “my home” that resonates within me, wherever I am.
Something that stays with me, even as my surroundings change.
Home is also a “state of being” that changes you just a little,
and this is an invitation to share that feeling with you, if only for a moment.’
A small playlist woven together for the special holiday season. We have gathered songs by women artists who have walked alongside HEREU this year, sharing their works and expressions.
Their overlapping voices and diverse perspectives create a single, tranquil sonic space, gently illuminating a heartwarming moment.
Las Flores de mi Jardín
The music gently stays by my side, bringing forth a creative drive from deep within my heart and a sense of quietly harmonizing with the world.
The traces of ancient folklore breathing in the land of my family, my roots. And pop music passed down from the past to the present. They are beautifully interwoven, stirring my heart as rich sonic memories. '
Sa Ferradura
’Sa Ferradura is a playlist of songs that capture the essence of summer in their sounds and emotions.
The beach, open landscapes, time spent with someone, reading or dozing alone—these are the songs we often turn to at this time of year, tied to such moments.’
Long live the queers!
’The people who turned protest into celebration.
Those who moved between the underground and pop, danced through the night, and turned resistance into poetry.
This playlist brings together songs by queer artists I revere, and by comrades who sing about destruction—or simply enjoying life—as if the two were one and the same.’
No Wall
’This playlist is a journey from the earth to the heavens. The rhythm of the soil, the voices of ancestors, harmonies that transcend cultures, and the ebb and flow of time.
The atmosphere, where everything melts into one, is like a ritual.
There is no wall between tradition and originality, between past and present. This ritualistic feeling is inspired by the words of Kae Tempest:
“As dark and dense and wet as earth
As vast and bright and sweet as air”
As dark, heavy, and damp as earth,
as vast, bright, and sweet as air.’
Enamoradita de esta musiquita
’A playlist carefully selected from countless songs.
There were other songs I wanted to include,
but these are the ones that still stay with me.
They connect my past to the present, inspire me, and move my heart.
A little blessing for music.
A small tribute to love.’
Desigo Serari
’This playlist paints an imaginary folkloric landscape.
Unfamiliar instruments and voices echo from somewhere otherworldly,
as if they had been resonating since time immemorial.
Flowing with a sense of stillness, nostalgia, and at times, drama,
everything is enveloped in an atmosphere that feels solemn and reminiscent of ancestral memories.’
Tidying up the kitchen while feeling like a movie star
’Sunday morning. A tower of Tupperware waiting to be put away stands on the kitchen counter.
The walls feel like the audience of an orchestra, and even though there are four plates in the sink, two empty pizza boxes, and a few grease splatters around the stove, I don’t really mind.
I roll up the sleeves of my pajamas and get ready to play the lead role in my very own musical.
This is the scene I imagine in my head when I tidy up my room.
I’m incredibly messy, so it might seem contradictory, but with a good playlist, I can actually enjoy tidying up the house a little.
I made this playlist to make tidying up and cleaning a little more fun, whether you’re in the kitchen or anywhere else.’
Every moment could be the last
Each song in this playlist has its own distinct character, yet they all evoke a strange sense of nostalgia—as if they haven't ended yet, but are about to vanish at any moment.
When listened to in order, the energy and emotions gradually layer upon one another, flowing seamlessly from one to the next.
To me, each represents a different kind of "ending."
But if you change the order, you might discover an unexpected side of the music, depending on how you listen.'
