Shepard, promise me you'll tell them to subscribe for free content. Now ladies and gentlemen, of course over here on notorious mass effect, we do get into the gaming and music IPs that notoriously affect the masses and safe to say for this particular segment. You guys. You guys. We are diving into the Spanish pop punk slash indie rock band from Paula Madrid. As if you don't know, the particular group that we're getting into today is the first time I've ever covered this particular band. they go by the name of La La Love You, and the particular track we're getting into for this segment is Elfin del Mundo, featuring Axelos Mexicano. You know what I'm saying? Just dubby pronunciation.

No, too crazy, you know what I mean? It's like, you ain't got to do all that. Come on, Drusky, they ain't got to do all that, but definitely make sure to rate this five stars. Now, the reason why we're diving into this, while we're diving into this particular track is because Elfin del Mundo is currently the 10th most played track in Mexico. And when it comes to that, this group is definitely no stranger to success as when it comes to them winning the MTV EMA for Best Spanish Artists in 2020. When it comes to the O'Don Award for Best Revelation Artists in 2021, when it comes to a multi-platinum certification. Okay, y'all get the point. They are verily successful.

Very successful. So the main thing I was wanting to get into is the premieres. Pro Muskey. Pro Music key. I think it's Pro Music Key. So when it comes to that, basically, this is Spain's official recorded music industry trade association and chart compilers, similar to in the States. We have Billboard, et cetera, right? So when it comes to pro music key, the main reason why I'm bringing that up is because this particular group is doing phenomenal when it comes to those specific charts.

And, um, um, um, you see, okay, hold on. Am I not spelling this right? Oh, I hear this. Okay, so basically they peaked at number 27 on Spain's for music key top 100. And when it comes to the viral success on their particular charts, they have 180 plus consecutive weeks on the From Music Key charts, which is the record as far as the all-time record.

And of course, when it comes to that, becoming the longest charting song and this specific track we're getting into as far as Elfin del Mundo that's the 10th most played track in Mexico is currently the longest chart charting song in Pro Music Key history

with already said it but I'm saying it again 180 plus consecutive weeks on the chart so the main reason why we're getting into this specific specific track is because not only did this track come out November 29th, 2019 but ladies and gentlemen you know if I was to look at my handy dandy watch you know what I'm saying

safe to say is the year of 2026 and it's still one of the most notorious mass affecting tracks out in the music industry I definitely wanted to highlight how when it comes to different marketing strategies this particular band as far as la la love you they are the most streamed spanish they have the most streamed Spanish indie song on spotify so shout to them because of course being indie, it's very hard to even get a notorious mass effect wave in your own system because of course

when you look at the chart specifically UMG has 58% Sony has 25% Warner has 15% of course others which is smaller labels than individual and independent acts they have a whopping 2% you guys

so when you look at La La Love you having their particular success independent wise it is very much a phenomenal feat and almost a lottery type of effect that they're having right now because they are essentially the point 0.001% as far as the music industry and how to have success with a particular track. So I already know when it comes to the marketing strategy, when it comes to where they're peaking at, of course, I think having Axelots Mexicans definitely helped out as far as the appeal of both artists on one particular track and bringing

their respective fan base. But of course, initially, it had modest success. It was very much a sleeper hit. If you play this around your friends who love Mexican music as far as timbados, Carridos tombados, or other type of Spanish music, you would come to realize that if you play this particular track, they may just say that you no ball, right? So as far as it being a sleeper hit out the gate, it exploded in popularity during the COVID, 19 lockdown.

So this reminds me a little baby as far as him having very much his biggest appeal while we were all locked down in COVID, especially when it comes to the bigger picture, when it comes to his albums in 2020 to 2022, which is definitely the COVID times. I believe certain musicians who have their peak during COVID, I'm not going to say it's a gift and a curse, but I will say, that in those times, you probably couldn't celebrate your success like you would want to. So getting back into La La Love You Success. I mean, they had early releases from a track title, Um, K Riko in 2008,

and of course, a self-titled track titled, Lala, Love You in 2013. And when it comes to the original founders, is Roberto Amor, David Marino. And of course, you have the later members such as, Berlin, Oscar Hoyos, Hoyas, I think that's how you said. Oscar Hoyas? Hold on, let me make sure you know, I got to get that pronunciation right,

you know what I'm saying? Oscar Oyos. Orios, okay, Oscar Oreos. So when it comes to that, the band name came from the inspiration came from Pixie's song, La La Love You, which is why they got their name

in the first place. So if you wanted to know about the group, I just told you, you know what I'm saying? So another thing I was going to get into outside of the mammoth of success they're having right now is that not only are they continue to have this type of success but of course they have live events as I'm showing right now analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio

because this is currently what is going on I was trying to find another video that's recent yeah here's another video of them performing so basically they have a very cult-like audience that will come out to watch them live and of course they'll always convert well not always but if you're a good performer, which they are, it will convert into actual sales on DSPs because people will go from the live performance saying to themselves, I want to listen to that track

again to remind me of when I went to go watch them live. And that's only if you're a great performer, which Lala love you obviously is. So another thing before, another thing I was wanting to dive into is this being one of the prime examples of why it's always good to never give up on a track if you believe in it, especially when you have a marketing strategy that you can attach to it, whether it's Spotify playlist, TikTok, social media, sharing, user-generated content. I believe not only did that help out as far as that specific marketing strategy, but of course you have remixed versions by artists including N. Mir, I think that's how you say it,

and L. Yella, as far as expanding the song's audience, the particular song we're getting into for this segment. in Mir and L. Iiella, those are the artists that remix El Fend Del Mundo and helped grow and expand the actual songs audience. So when you see it frequently featured in Spanish television, media, festivals, and live performances, just know where it came from originally. This track came out November 29th, 2019, and it's 2026. And when it comes to the, TV shows and different media grasping this specific tracking using it in their own way. Just know that at first, it had very much a grassroots type of appeal because when it comes

to the modest outing as far as putting out the track and not getting the type of traction that you think you deserve, safe to say, if you stick with it with the right marketing strategies, then you never know what can happen with that particular track, especially if you believe in it. So when it comes to the band, they also sought out major venues, including Wiz Zink Center, Wiz Inc. Center in Madrid, increased festival headlining appearances, expanded recognition beyond Spain, and demonstrated that an independent band could achieve mainstream commercial success. Because once again, as far as the music market share, UMG has 58%, Sony has 25%, and Warner has 15.

and when it comes to the others, which is smallest labels and independent acts in general, they have a whopping 2%. Which is why I love stories like this, which is why I love stories like this as far as Lala, let me get the name right, as far as Lala

love you, their particular, this particular band and the independent success story with their track Elfin, Del Mundo, just ultimately cultivated into having the 10th, into having currently, the 10th most play track in Mexico.
