Influenced by Lila Downs, Bomba Estéreo, Natalia Lafourcade, Chavela Vargas. Brisia Vargas learned about melody from the rhythm of her grandmother's loom in their Zapotec weaving village in Oaxaca. Now, she writes her songs after long shifts at 'El Alma Rota,' a dimly lit mezcalería in Mexico City where she bartends three nights a week. Her music is a composite of the late-night confessions she overhears, whispered over the hypnotic strum of a charango and the warm hum of a vintage synth. These are soundscapes for the quiet moments after the world has gone to sleep.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Son las cuatro de la mañana, martes,
y la cocina huele a chile chilhuacle quemado.
Te marco sin pensar, perdón la hora...
Es que este mole nomás no me perdona.

[Chorus]
Sal y humo en la lengua.
Casi sabe a casa, casi es la respuesta.
Sal y humo, la tregua.
De una fe cansada que aún se renueva.

[Verse 2]
Dijiste una vez, "el secreto es el fuego lento".
El metate está frío contra mis dedos.
Dejé tu voz guardada en un mensaje viejo,
escucho el silencio que dejaste en medio.

[Interlude]
(Sonido de una cuchara de madera contra una olla de barro, un suspiro largo)
...creo que me falta algo. O a él le falta algo...

[Chorus]
Sal y humo en la lengua.
Casi sabe a casa, casi es la respuesta.
Sal y humo, la tregua.
De una fe cansada que aún se renueva.

[Bridge]
(Wordless vocalizations over a breathy tenor sax solo)
Un día de estos, lo juro, va a saber a ti.

[Outro]
Bueno... ya te dejo.
(Sonido de un teléfono colgando, el beat se desvanece)
