The story behind

Mon Laferte wrote El cristal in a difficult moment. The song came out of the album Mon Laferte, vol. 1, released in August 2015. Before that, the artist had released two independent albums in Mexico: Desechable and Tornasol. At that time, Mon Laferte was going through a depression. The music she listened to with her grandmother was a way to connect with something more profound.

She recorded the album under very basic conditions. She didn't have money or electricity at home. She connected an electrical extension from the building's parking lot to be able to use the equipment. The song El cristal was born from that context. It is a piece that carries emotional weight, but also a rhythmic strength. It has three minutes and two seconds, and on Last.fm it has over 200 thousand plays.
