At the age of 15, a pubescent

Miriam Nares

(Gandía, 1994) discovered in writing and music the way to express herself and overcome the shyness that accompanied her in her adolescence.

"It was my way of venting and communicating, of expressing what I felt because she was an introvert, I still am, and I felt very lonely."

And, although her shyness continues, her loneliness has evaporated over the years and with the progress of her incipient musical career under the name of

Fusa Nocta.

It is difficult to frame the ten of his published songs in a style, like so many artists in this liquid musical time, because they

move through electronics, hip-hop, trap or flamenco fusion

.

My family

fits into the latter

, the single that has launched her as one of the favorites for the Benidorm Fest and, therefore, as a possible representative for Eurovision.

The reference to family is recurring in your songs, how important is it in your career? Everyone, they have always been my support, although they did not expect me to dedicate myself to this, and they are very proud.

They are afraid because they know how dangerous this industry is, but they are happy.

My great fear is disappointing them, not reaching the sky and being seen. Do the expectations that surround you now affect you? When it comes to composing anything, I talk about what I feel, what I see and what surrounds me .

If I thought about the rest, I would lose creativity and freedom.

But it is a fact that expectations have been exceeded. In 'Desde abajo' you sing 'I know where I came from and where I want to go'.

What two places are those? I was born into a humble family in Gandía and I want to dedicate myself to this quietly, enjoy singing.

But I'm very ambitious

I'm going to succeed and I'm going to do it my way.

Being from humble origins makes me appreciate every opportunity and the fact that I have more money than I have had so far.

That's important, but it also overwhelms me. I sense a certain fear of losing his mind in him. Honestly, yes, but I like working on it.

I don't think my head suddenly goes away, but I have seen people who have surrounded themselves with people who don't say anything bad to them, who don't respect them, because they stop surrounding themselves with their family and friends.

And it makes me angry. How do you do that job? Learning to accept criticism from the people around you with an open heart and not believing yourself to be better than anyone else.

It is important not to get carried away because they make your life easier, everything is free and you are always in the spotlight.

Today you can be god, have a million listeners and tomorrow be nobody.

The singer Fusa Nocta, in Madrid RíoÁNGEL NAVARRETE

On that path, she has chosen to go without a record company behind her.

Why?

"Because when I sign, I want her to be who she's comfortable with.

I know it's taking a risk because I have fewer options than other artists

, but it's a decision and I think I'm going to have better conditions."

Today you can be god, have a million listeners and tomorrow be nobody because music is ephemeral

Are you afraid of being a product? That influences because I want to be allowed to be creative, have my style, choose my clothes and make my video clips.

If I lose control of my career and my creative freedom is taken away, I am no longer interested in this. Without those resources it is also more difficult to succeed.

It's more complicated to put on a good show, have dancers or wear the clothes I want, of course.

I want to sign with a record company, it's not that I don't want to, but I'm going to do it with my conditions.

The ones that she already tried to establish in her time on

Factor X

, in 2018, when her song

No Gyals

, a criticism of machismo and the lack of women in rap, catapulted her.

«It is true that in five years a lot has changed, but I went to a lot of cockfights and

I am ashamed that two guys mess with the other's mother, girlfriend or grandmother because they have nothing more to say

».

I'm embarrassed to see a rapper mess with someone else's mom or boyfriend because they don't have more to say

Does it also happen in the industry? A lot has changed, but we are still not well.

There are many men succeeding in the same style, but Rosalía, Bad Gyal or Nathy Peluso are the ones who lead theirs and there is only one in each style.

It strikes me that women are the ones who lead and several cannot access a style. Is it a matter of demands? A physique is totally required of us, to be perfect, to be divas and to be liked by everyone.

That doesn't happen with men. How did it feel to be a young girl in that environment? They treated me like a little girl and it still happens to me.

That limits a lot because if you answer badly, you are hysterical or unpleasant;

If you don't say anything, they take you for a fool.

[...] And I am not going to say that it is not worth going through this because then they have won.

Right now, thanks to the women who have fought, we are dating.

Giving up can't be an option right now. Why did you feel blocked after leaving X Factor? I had a lot of anxiety, I stopped putting up songs, but I never stopped playing music or even thought about leaving it.

I prefer to succeed being well than not with the anxiety and tachycardia with which she woke up.

That break helped me because I composed more than 100 songs, although then it's hard to recover. Are we living at too high a pace? Today in this industry you release a powerful song and the next day they can forget about you.

Before, people released an album, they spent a year or two without releasing anything, they toured quietly... Today they ask you

all the time, there are people who put out one a week.

Everything is very volatile and that generates stress that you freak out.
