Kicking off his 2023 on the highest note possible, Bentley Robles has come storming into the new year with an undeniable hit, “salvatore”. Read on as we share our complete thoughts on the track, as well as a background on this artist.


Describing this song as “bringing the fun of telenovela drama to mainstream pop”, we can confidently confirm that Bentley Robles has surpassed that goal on his latest, “salvatore”. Released officially on January 11th via Sad Magic Records, from the opening notes, the listener is immediately immersed into this club-ready, beat heavy, and expressive song that takes you on a danceable journey from beginning to end. If for whatever reason this happens to be your introduction to the artist, this is an ideal starting point to explore much more.


Leaning into the Latin side of things on this bilingual track, Bentley has gone above and beyond in terms of bridging the gap between his usual synth-pop sound and classic dancehall. Through our now many listens, it’s quickly come to light that this song is undoubtedly going to be stuck in our heads for the foreseeable future, mainly as it’s about as catchy as any pop song comes. Through just a short three minutes of runtime, essentially this is about as well rounded as you can be. It’s got a silky smooth production, Bentley’s velvety vocals, and even vivid lyricism that was inspired directly by this artist’s life. So he says, “I was inspired to write a song about the internal war between good and evil…that intoxicating feeling of being bad and allowing it to feel good”.


With help on the production from Gregory Dillon and engineering by Ryan Schumer, all the collaborators here brought their best effort in creating something that’s got a long shelf life and furthermore a single we won’t be surprised to hear in the clubs soon. Without spoiling much else, obviously we’re urging everyone out there to give this a spin as soon as possible. It flawlessly brings a positive and optimistic energy into 2023, a glimmer of light and love that we all need at the moment.
