“Preciosa” sets the tone for the album’s release, showcasing the raw power and emotion that has made La Diferenzia a legendary name in Tejano music since the 1990s. Castillon shared his excitement about the album’s direction, stating, “We went back to our roots for this album. Over the last 15 years, I experimented with various sounds, but they never captured the true essence of La Diferenzia. I was navigating through a lot of different emotions during that time, but now La Diferenzia is back and stronger than ever. This is the sound that made La Diferenzia a household name in the ’90s!”
The upcoming album, Renacimiento del Phoenix, promises to be a celebration of the band’s legacy, featuring 12 original tracks and a music video for each. Fans can look forward to a deep and intimate connection with La Diferenzia’s music, as the band plans to release a new music video every month leading up to the full album’s release in 2025.
“This time it’s for the love of the music and for my people!” Castillon declares with passion. The album’s title, Renacimiento del Phoenix, perfectly symbolizes the band’s resurgence, as the Phoenix represents rebirth, strength, and transformation—just as La Diferenzia is making a triumphant return to the Tejano music scene.
