luminous melancholy

De amor y desamor

De amor y desamor (Eng.: Of love and heartbreak) is an album of intimate songs, written from a deeply human and vulnerable place. These songs are born from intense and contradictory emotions. Sometimes sadness, other times desire, tenderness, or confusion, but they don’t stop there: they seek to transform them into something luminous and warm, something that offers company… They don’t speak of love through epic scales or drama, but through the everyday, through the body and small gestures: a voice, a room, a memory, a recurring question.

 

 

The project is rooted in the idea that vulnerability can be a form of strength and honesty. The songs don’t aim to explain or resolve anything; they aim to be present, to offer companionship. Musically, everything revolves around the voice and the guitar, with meticulous and subtle arrangements (strings, silences, breath), always at the service of emotion and never for the sake of spectacle.

some words about me

Luca de Dios is a Spanish language singer-songwriter who turns sadness into light. His music emerges from vulnerability and from the belief that tenderness can be a radical force. Centered on an intimate voice, evolving electronic textures and intricate guitars, Luca creates a new Ibero-American folk language: electro-acoustic, poetic, and deeply human.

 

His recently released album De amor y desamor (October 2026) explores luminous melancholy through songs that offer companionship rather than answers. Luca performs in formats ranging from solo voice-and-guitar to small chamber ensembles or full band, always prioritizing closeness and sonic honesty.
