Lulacruza was an electronic folk duo composed of Alejandra Ortiz from Colombia and Luis Maurette from Argentina, who blended indigenous South American music with modern electronica. Their music was a rich tapestry woven from Ortiz’s haunting vocals and Maurette’s intricate instrumentation, which included a plethora of electronic and acoustic elements. The ethereal nature of their soundscape allowed them to carve out a unique niche within the world music and global electronica scenes.
Lulacruza released a series of well-received albums and EPs, with their project "Orcas" being one of their most notable works, alongside its successive remix volumes that featured reinterpretations by various artists, showing the expansive influence and adaptability of their sound. They gained recognition for their ability to create mystical auditory experiences that pay homage to the traditions of the indigenous cultures of the Amazon and the Andes while also integrating contemporary beats and textures. While the output of new music seemed to culminate with the series of "Orcas Remixed" releases, the legacy of Lulacruza continues to resonate with those who experienced their captivating blend of ancestral melodies and the electronic avant-garde.
