Soñar (Breaker)

  NMIXX released “Soñar (Breaker)” on Dec. 4, as a prerelease single. The song’s use of Latin pop and dramatic drums left me in anticipation of how the group would incorporate similar sounds in the rest of the album, but “Soñar (Breaker)” is singular in its sound. The whispers and futuristic sounds in the first part of the song are an immediate ear magnet, but the immediate rapping was a bit of a turn-off. Yet, the more I listened to it, the more the chorus wormed its way into my head. The song’s pre-chorus vocals that highlight all the girls’ voices make the song danceable and distinct.
