Rosalía’s new single “Berghain” is heartbreak as a performance of grief, freedom, and transformation. In this Last Mixed Tape deep dive, we explore how pain becomes art, and why Rosalía stands as one of the defining artists of our time.
In Berghain, Rosalía turns heartbreak into ritual. Set against the cultural backdrop of Berlin’s legendary club and her Catalan roots, this episode of The Last Mixed Tape examines how she translates loss into performance using sound, body, and movement to reclaim freedom.
We look at how Berghain continues the evolution of Motomami, blending vulnerability with power, and how collaborators like Björk and Yves Tumor expand its emotional and symbolic depth. Through grief, Rosalía reinvents herself and in doing so, redefines what pop music can be.
The Last Mixed Tape is hosted by Stephen White, and is also available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
