The song follows the success of the Puerto Rican duo’s album Regresa and a collab with Bad Bunny
Buscabulla are back for their first solo single in four years. On Tuesday, the duo — made up of Raquel Berrios and Luis Del Valle — released “11:11,” dropping the track alongside an accompanying video.
The song’s title is a reference to the angel number that serves as a reminder that life is too short. “You have a purpose, and you have to fulfill it,” Berrios said in a press release of the track. “That’s what this new era is about.”
In the video, directed by Fish Rodriguez, Berrios cleans a filthy, imaginary house, becoming more and more frustrated with the dirt that’s taken over the space. By the time the clock hits 11:11, soap falls from the sky and Berrios gets the power (and right tool) to power-wash the room. After the song ends, Berrios poses for a photo in a now-sparkly white room.
The duo self-produced the track, which was mixed by Rich Costey. “11:11” was inspired by the music they’d hear their moms play on cleaning days in their childhood.
Buscabulla will hit the road with three scheduled shows this summer. They’ll start on July 11 at Millenium Park in Chicago, July 12 at Los Angeles’ Lodge Room, and Aug. 11 at New York’s Ruidosa Festival. The duo will also throw a party in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico on July 27 to celebrate the the release of “11:11.” “It’s been a minute, guys, come through!” said Berrios in a video promoting the LA show.
The new song follows Buscabulla’s collaboration with Alex Anwandter, “Mi Vida en Llamas” last year. Their debut album, Regresa, dropped in 2020, catching the attention of Bad Bunny, who featured them on Un Verano Sin Ti‘s “Andrea” in 2022.
