Pa' Vos Nomás EP cover — Catalina in a red dress on a Medellín street at night, gold padlock at her throat

Pa’ Vos Nomás

Don Ricardo · Aurelian Terra Syndicate Records · ATS-003


Six tracks · EP · Released 26 September 2026 · A = 432 Hz

One night in Medellín, from ten at night until the sun comes up. Six tracks, one woman, and a padlock with no key — because the key went into the Río Medellín and nobody is going in after it.

Reggaetón, cumbia, bachata and vallenato. Sung in Spanish, recorded at 432 Hz.

The EP is not a loose collection — it is a night, told in real time. Each track marks an hour, from 10PM to 6AM, following one woman from the moment she walks into La 70 to the moment the sun comes up on the other side of a decision she made without telling anyone. It is, at its core, a loyalty record: not heartbreak, but devotion, expressed as refusal.

PA’ VOS NOMÁS is not a heartbreak album. It’s a loyalty album.

It’s the story of one paisa woman who everyone thinks is available because she is beautiful, confident, and out on La 70 on a Friday night. But she isn’t. She locked her heart a long time ago and threw the key into the Río Medellín.

The EP follows her through one night from 10PM to 6AM. Six tracks, six hours, six moods – from the cocky entrance to the bar, to the anthem of possession, to the drunk honesty, to the 3AM emotional breakdown at the river, to the sexy 4AM bedroom moment, to the 6AM sunrise acoustic love letter.

The core phrase “Con Candado y Sin Llave / Pa’ Vos Nomás” is the thread. It’s jealous, loyal, sexy, a little possessive – exactly how love feels in Medellín. It’s not sad, it’s “you’re mine, I’m yours, and that’s it.”

This is for every woman who is tired of being told she is “too much” for loving hard. She doesn’t want freedom. She wants to be locked to one person.


CATALINA

She’s the woman on the cover — grey-blue eyes, dark hair damp from the rain,
a gold padlock resting against her skin. Catalina is the reason Pa’ Vos
Nomás exists: not a real person, but the one every track is written to and
about.

She’s out on La 70 on a Friday night, red lipstick and heels, and everyone
assumes she’s available. She isn’t. Her heart’s been locked for a long time,
and by 3AM she’s standing on a bridge over the Río Medellín, dropping the
key into the water for good.

The EP follows her from 10PM to sunrise — one night, one decision she’d
already made long before anyone noticed.

Sunrise over Medellín rooftops, the hour the final track describes

A Note from Catalina

They think I’m easy to read. Red dress, red lips, out on La 70 on a
Friday night. They think that means available.

It doesn’t.

I locked this a long time ago. Not out of fear — out of certainty. I
know exactly who it’s for, and it isn’t whoever’s watching tonight.

The key’s already gone. I threw it in the river myself, at 3AM, with
my own hands. There’s no version of this where I change my mind.

Look all you want. Some things aren’t for sale, and some things aren’t
for you.

Pa’ vos nomás. Siempre.

4:47 · Spanish

Friday night on La 70. Red lipstick, pointed heels, hair down. She walks in and the street stops. Everyone looks, everyone talks — but she is not for sale. She came to shine, not to be touched.


2:44 · Spanish

She has left La 70 and reached the bar. Someone asks why she won’t dance. She smiles and lays down the rules: heart with a padlock, no copy, no key. The key is already at the bottom of the Río Medellín.

Loyalty is sexier than freedom.


4:04 · Spanish

Her friends dragged her out to forget. One guaro, two guaros, and the DJ plays that song. Now she is drunk and honest — every shot tastes like his name. She laughs, she cries, she screams it.

If you see her drunk, it is because she is thinking of him.


3:40 · Spanish

124 BPM · Bachata colombiana × vallenato

Three in the morning. She walks alone to the bridge over the Río Medellín. Cold hands, a small golden key, his name in her chest. She throws it. It barely makes a sound in the water and it thunders in her heart.

No turning back. She is locked for good.


3:25 · Spanish

100 BPM · Champeta romántica × afrobeats

Back home. No competition. Let them try — they can wear the miniskirts and paint their faces, but they do not have this. This movement, this kiss, this way she looks at him.

There is no copy. Only for him.


3:33 · Spanish

85 BPM · Acoustic vallenato · Title track

Sunrise in Medellín. No drums, no club — just guitar, soft accordion and raw truth. She whispers what she could not say all night: this love is not for the street, not for people. With all the good, all the bad, all her jealousy and all her kisses.

Pa’ vos nomás. Forever.

Special for bandcamp album buyers – This edition includes three bonus items: the official liner notes with full lyrics, a story booklet — the night behind every track, hour by hour — and a bonus slowed edition of the title track, Versión Amanecer Lento, tuned to a true 432 Hz reference.


The tuning

Every track on this EP is tuned to A = 432 Hz rather than the 440 Hz international standard — about a fifth of a semitone lower. Every release on this label is, without exception.

It is an artistic preference. We make no health, therapeutic or medical claim for any tuning.

The City

Nothing in these songs is invented geography.

La 70 is a real street in Laureles, and on a Friday night it is exactly what track one describes — bars spilling onto the pavement, people out until the sun comes up, music from six directions at once. You can walk it.

The Río Medellín runs through the middle of the city, north to south, under a series of bridges. Track four happens on one of them at three in the morning. That bridge exists. So does the sound the key makes, or rather doesn’t.

El Poblado, the guaro, the champeta at four in the morning — all of it is the city as it is, not as it looks in a video.

I did not write this record about Medellín from somewhere else. That matters, and it is the reason the details are right.
