Behind The Tracks: Racimo - The Landing (Single) (2026)

The Landing is about crashing into the world we live in today — a restless, unpredictable, and often chaotic place where reality can hit without warning and tear us away from the comfort of our everyday lives. The social uprising, the wildfires in Chile, and the COVID-19 pandemic are experiences we have lived through firsthand, while wars in Ukraine and the Middle East reach us through screens, news feeds, and social media. All of these events become part of the same overwhelming landscape, blurring the line between what happens around us and what happens to us. The song captures that feeling of being suddenly confronted with the chaos of the contemporary world, with all its uncertainty, violence, contradictions, and noise.

In our video, this journey is embodied by the mysterious character who has appeared on the covers of our latest albums. His arrival on Earth becomes a metaphor for our own landing: opening our eyes to an unknown world, absorbing its chaos, being seduced by its possibilities, and searching for something worth believing in. The video was temporarily blocked by YouTube due to its political content, an unexpected consequence of a story that draws directly from the realities surrounding us. The Landing is that moment when we stop watching the world from a safe distance and take the leap into it — curious, vulnerable, and hopeful. We know the ground beneath us may shift at any moment, and that we cannot control what waits ahead. But we land anyway.
