Alex Serra’s music fits within the “conscious music” movement and his music often feels like spiritual journeys rather than traditional pop compositions. As a defining element, his voice utilizes repetitive melodic phrases inspired by traditional chants, a spiritual and meditative vocal approach, and heavy use of vocal layering and harmonies. His songs combine warm vocal performances with organic electronic beats. There is a plethora of music references sprinkled within his music such as ceremonial world music, psychedelic electronica, and ambient soul. Alex Serra’s deep spiritual connection to music enables him to weave those genres with ease and create an introspective listening experience for the listener. The themes within his music revolve around themes such as Consciousness, inner awakening, and connection with nature. One recurring theme is exploring the illusion that humans and the natural world are separate.

Drawing inspiration from different musical cultures, Spanish down-tempo artist Alex Serra creates immersive sound journeys. Alex Serra is a traveling musician from the Mediterranean city of Barcelona. His solo career and especially his debut album In the Real World (2019), grew out of an inspiring four-year journey of self-discovery that began in 2012 and took him across Latin America and South Africa. The journey connected him with musicians from diverse musical traditions, infusing his music with revitalizing energy. After returning to Barcelona, he connected with dub producer Toti Arimany (Totidub) who helped him shape the sonic landscape of his debut album. Together, they crafted a collection of songs that transport listeners to other dimensions. Blending genres such as downtempo, dub, soul, and reggae, the music recreates the natural atmospheres and field recordings Alex captured during his travels, weaving them together with Afro-Latin electronic rhythms, soulful guitar work, and an exquisite use of dub textures and effects.
