Berlin based, Peruvian artist Sofia Kourtesis shares a Tourist remix of her critically acclaimed and utterly infectious ‘La Perla’. Speaking of the remix Sofia said that “I love Tourist! His music has soundtracked so many journeys for me. When thinking about remixes for La Perla he was top of my list.

Like any good remix, Will has completely flipped the song on its head and created something unique and very beautiful”.
Tourist commented that “La Perla is one of my favourite tracks from the last year and Sofia is one of my favourite artists currently - so it was a real honour for her to ask me to remix her music”.
The electronic producer is not alone with his admiration for Sofia’s work. Her stunning EP “Fresia Magdalena”, which features lead single ‘La Perla’, was released earlier this year in March, marking Sofia’s first release for Technicolour. It immediately received widespread acclaim from the likes of The Guardian, Rolling Stone, Resident Advisor, NME, Clash and Pitchfork who said that “Kourtesis has a sound of her own: unfailingly warm, thoughtful in form, risking a certain conservatism for the sake of welcome comfort". It also received amazing radio support with plays from Pete Tong, Jack Saunders, Annie Mac, Mary Anne Hobbs, Tom Ravenscroft, Jamz Supernova and Steve Lamacq to name a few.
Following her breakout EP Sarita Colonia in 2020 - which saw her tipped as a ' One To Watch' by The Observer, feature on Emerging Artist lists from DJ Mag and Mixmag - “Fresia Magdalena” continued to hone her singular sound, using astutely selected samples and a joyful sense of personality.
Sofia is due to set out on tour over the next few months with a run of high profile dates including Field Day, Lost Village,Warehouse Project x Four Tet and a headline show at London’s Oval Space.
Sofia Kourtesis ‘La Perla (Tourist remix)’ is out now on Technicolour.
