Milena Casado – Reflection Of Another Self

Today, Milena Casado, trumpeter, composer, and producer, released her introspective debut album Reflection Of Another Self on Candid Records.

Reflection Of Another Self is a stunning first statement – a deeply personal exploration of her identity, overcoming personal traumas including experiencing racism growing up in Spain and grappling with her dual heritage, among other profound topics. The record is a sonically adventurous and bold debut that features a slew of special guests including multi-instrumentalist Morgan Guerin, pianist Lex Korten, bassist Kanoa Mendenhall, and drummer Jongkuk Kim –  each of which can be found on the focus track “Yet I Can See.”

The juxtaposition of Casado’s dream-like vocals with the improvising musicians’ galvanizing performances for the song portrays the inner turmoil one experiences when struggling with imposter syndrome.
