"HOLA" is a statement. It’s an inner monologue turned sonic landscape, and it marks a bold, quietly powerful return from kmalectro, who wrote, produced, recorded, mixed, and mastered every inch of this track solo.
Part alt-pop, part electronic slow-burn, part something hard to pin down in the best way, "HOLA" is an invitation. A whispered, beat-backed wave that says, "You’re not the only one sorting through your emotional chaos.”
In a world obsessed with spotlight and identity, kmalectro intentionally blurs the lines. The vocals in "HOLA" are shrouded in a soft mystery. This isn’t about ego—it’s about experience. There’s no front person here, just a voice drifting through space, layered like memory and smoke, leaving room for the listener to breathe inside it.
This choice is more than aesthetic—it’s philosophy. As kmalectro puts it:
“I don't want to be a projection surface, but to create a space.”
Mission accomplished.
The heartbeat of "HOLA" comes from a deeply personal place. It was born out of watching someone close struggle with self-acceptance. That real, raw tension became a song about "parts work"—the psychological process of reconciling all the different aspects of who we are, especially the parts we’re taught to hide.
“Learning to reconcile with all aspects of oneself - even the ones we try to hide,” kmalectro says. “That's where healing begins.”
“That's how peace happens.”
And this track is that connection: between person and self, artist and listener, pain and peace.
Musically, "HOLA" is a genre cocktail that somehow makes total sense:
Think Depeche Mode’s darkness, The Cure’s melodic melancholy, and David Bowie’s chameleon soul. But don’t expect a straightforward fusion—this isn’t a genre exercise, it’s more of a feeling exercise. A lived-in sound born from cross-cultural experience, long studio nights, and instinctual creativity.

Every beat, every layer, feels intentional, yet spontaneous. That’s because the process was as emotional as it was technical—the core of the song emerged from a spontaneous bassline, the rest of the track falling into place around it like sonic architecture.
What makes "HOLA" especially moving is knowing it comes after a pause—a personal, professional quiet kmalectro had to live through after a creative breakup left them at square one.
This isn’t just a new single. This is the comeback. Not in a flashy, look-at-me way—but in the deeply felt, I’m-here-and-still-creating kind of way.
“This song is the first one born out of that void. It’s my return—to myself.”
It doesn’t shout. It doesn’t beg. It whispers its truth with grace and intention. And that makes it hit even harder.
A running theme throughout is that you don’t have to be okay all the time. We’re made up of many parts, and all of them deserve a seat at the table. Creativity isn’t always clean—it’s messy, layered, and sometimes comes from pain. Sometimes, silence is just the waiting room before a new sound is born.
If "HOLA" makes you feel seen, that’s the point. If it makes you feel less alone, that’s the gift.
"HOLA" isn’t just a song—it’s a gentle wave from the depths. It’s kmalectro’s carefully crafted invitation into a sonic space where emotions are welcome, mystery is sacred, and the music is both mirror and medicine.
It’s the kind of track you don’t just hear—you feel. You sit with. You let happen.
So take a breath, hit play, and say hello back.
