Review

[edit]

With Niña de Fuego, again produced by Limón, Buika delves deeper into the flamenco genre but continues to cast a much wider net. Here she sings both her originals and reinterprets classic rancheras. She has branded her sound with a warm jazz-oriented approach, encompassing each song with its own distinct character. She sings with minimal accompaniment, creating spaces in the songs that add to the attraction. Though all the lyrics on Niña de Fuego are in Spanish, there is a feeling that transcends language barriers. The songs are sung in the universal tones of a forsaken, abandoned or distraught lover seeking consolation in the song. This is the traditional formula for Spanish composition of all genres; it is music with very deep roots in romance expressed as art. Niña de Fuego maintains its true bearing throughout. It offers an excellent mix of tempos, great song selection, and superb production quality. Buika does not wander aimlessly, but travels to that space where she excels in pouring out her emotions, leaving behind secret hopes for more to come.
