Key Discussion Points & Insights
The Importance of Rest and Wellbeing
-
[00:11-00:41] The show kicks off with banter about mattresses—Carla highlights his "colchón de muelles ensacados con viscoelástico," sparking laughs about the aging process and the need to rest after dancing so much.
"Somos gente muy activa. Bailamos mucho, trabajamos mucho. Hay que dormir bien."
—Carlandas [00:45]
The Latest Single: "Problemas"
-
[00:53-01:53] Carlangas introduces "Problemas," a song inspired by people who always complain but never take responsibility. Initially, he wanted to name it “Puto Nube Negra,” but marketing prevailed.
"Quería llamarle puto Nube Negra a la canción, pero...Problemas, que queda como más poético."
—Carlandas [01:18] -
The song features irony and critique, co-performed with the emerging duo Diar Joan, whom Carlangas discovered through a friend. He was captivated by their punk energy reminiscent of his early days.
"Flipé con sus pintas, flipé con su sonido y me recordaba mucho a cuando yo empecé a hacer discos punkies hace como 18 años."
—Carlandas [02:39]
"Llama y llora" — Videoclip Story
-
[03:13-04:11] The music video is described as a sequence of people crying on the phone. The number shown, 981 1 92 2 6, is a playful Easter egg—981 being Carlangas’s Coruña area code, 19/2/26 referencing the song’s release date.
"981 es el prefijo de mi provincia, Coruña. Y luego es la fecha de salida, 19 del 2 del 26."
—Carlandas [03:29] -
The concept is from director Natalia Ferviu, and they joke about opening a literal “llama y llora” helpline.
Odes to Galicia, Instagram Consultorio, and a Tourism Snafu
-
[04:15-05:06] Carlangas ran an advice session on Instagram—and when asked for food recommendations in Coruña, his answer playfully boosted local tourism.
"¿Dónde se come en Coruña? ¿Dónde no se come en Coruña?"
—Consultorio anecdote [04:24] -
Shares a funny story about being called by the Xunta (regional government) for a dog adoption song, initially fearing trouble.
-
Despite cynicism in his lyrics, Carlangas admits, "Todavía confío en el sistema. Es una mierda, como dice en mi canción, pero un poquito."
—Carlandas [05:01]
"Podría ser peor"—Introspection & Leiva Collaboration
-
[05:17-07:12] This track has a more personal, introspective angle, inspired by the viral phrase “Es mejor esto que morirse.” News cycles and daily stress fueled its melancholy edge.
"Vivimos en este caos...Estamos mal, pero podría ser peor. La verdad es que sí."
—Carlandas [06:04] -
Collaboration with Leiva arose easily from their longstanding acquaintance and mutual friend. The track has early 2000s vibes reminiscent of Pereza and The Strokes.
"Esta canción me suena un poco a ese rollo como del principio de los 2000...Fui a su casa y grabamos las voces de Leiva y fue genial."
—Carlandas [06:26] -
The official announcement intentionally fell on December 28th (Spain’s "Day of the Innocents", similar to April Fool’s), confusing fans as a punky touch.
New Music and What’s Next
-
[07:19-08:07] Carlangas reveals his new album will drop in May, teasing a romantic new single to follow up his introspective and critical previous songs.
"Voy a sacar uno de esos de patatita...También hay que darse besitos de vez en cuando, no os olvidéis."
—Carlandas [08:03]- Fun fact: "La oxitocina se libera con besos de a partir de 6 segundos." [08:08]
Gigs, Festivals, and Romería
-
[08:38-10:18] Carlangas’s spring/summer tour schedule is packed, including appearances in Bilbao, Valencia, Santiago, Sonorama, and more.
-
He talks about "Romería Danosa Señora de Corpiño de Baile" (April 3, Náutico de San Vicente, O Grove), an event mixing traditional Galician celebration with a modern twist.
"Monto romerías...para no intoxicarme ni de un sitio ni de otro, busco la simetría vital."
—Carlandas [09:48] -
His partner, Natalia, will DJ at the event. Their mutual admiration surfaces in sweet exchanges:
"Se le da todo bien, qué te voy a contar. Yo estoy enamorado."
—Carlandas [10:14]
Exclusives, Carpentry, and Career "Pivot"
-
[10:47-11:54] Aside from music, Carlangas drops multiple “exclusivas”—he reveals the album title ("Universo paralelo") and playfully claims he’s training as a carpenter under Vico de Parla, a retired carpenter he met during house renovations.
"Después de roquero, voy a hacerme carpintero. Tengo un colega...carpintero jubilado, que me está enseñando el oficio."
—Carlandas [11:40] -
The hosts joke about future Instagram content: “Estoy reformando este armario…”
-
Carlangas’s "carpintería" would be called "Problemas. Soluciones. Arreglado."
The “Podría Ser Peor” or “Problemas” Game
[12:17-13:50]
The hosts present scenarios; Carlangas must label them “Podría ser peor” or “Problemas”:
- Spraining wrist before a big show: “Podría ser peor” (he’d find a substitute musician)
- Child loving an artist he dislikes: Mixed, but leans “Podría ser peor. Qué le voy a hacer.”
- Someone else releasing a cover just before him: “Problemas. No saco la canción. El timing es lo más importante.”
Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments
- “Un poco de autocrítica, un poco de espejo, un poquito de terapia, quizá...”
—Carlandas [01:51] - “Todavía confío en el sistema. Es una mierda, como dice en mi canción, pero un poquito.”
—Carlandas [05:01] - “Estoy muy trabajador. Yo siempre fui muy trabajador. Muy vago y muy trabajador a la vez. No sé cómo explicar esto. No lo entiende nadie.”
—Carlandas [08:47] - “Después de roquero, voy a hacerme carpintero...”
—Carlandas [11:40] - “Podría ser peor. Problemas.”
