What's Happening?
Netón Vega's track 'Morena,' featuring Peso Pluma, has been remixed by renowned DJ Tiësto. The remix, which transforms the original corrido into an electronic dance music version, was performed at various global music festivals before Tiësto reached out to Vega's team to officially record it. The remix is released today, August 22, and is part of Vega's debut album 'Mi Vida Mi Muerte,' which has seen significant success on the Regional Mexican Albums and Top Latin Albums charts. Vega, known for his versatility in regional Mexican and reggaetón music, sees this collaboration as a strategic move to reach new audiences, particularly in Europe. The artists plan to record a music video for the remix later this month.
Why It's Important?
The collaboration between Netón Vega, Peso Pluma, and Tiësto signifies a blending of musical genres, potentially broadening the audience for regional Mexican music. By incorporating electronic elements, the remix could attract fans of EDM, thereby increasing the global visibility of Vega and Peso Pluma. This partnership also highlights the growing trend of cross-genre collaborations in the music industry, which can lead to increased cultural exchange and innovation. For Tiësto, the remix offers an opportunity to tap into the Latin music market, expanding his audience base.
What's Next?
Netón Vega is scheduled to speak at the 2025 Billboard Latin Music Week in Miami, which will include panels, performances, and networking events. The week culminates with the Billboard Latin Music Awards on October 23. This event could further boost Vega's profile and provide additional opportunities for collaboration and exposure. The release of the music video for the 'Morena' remix later this month is expected to enhance the song's reach and impact.
