The musical group Suakai has recorded a song with the cyclist Mikel Landa, in which the music is in rhythm with the heartbeat of the cyclist while he rolls on his roller.
The "video single", called 'Focus' was released on January 1 and has accumulated more than 100,000 views on Instagram.
It starts with four musicians from Suakai (including its two co-founders Claudia Osés and Iván Carmona, on violin and cello, respectively) performing the song, while Mikel Landa is seen wearing his Soudal Quickstep jersey for the first time and pedaling his new bike.
The idea is to fuse music that evolves to the rhythm of a heart, so that it starts softly, while Landa marks 72 beats on his heart rate monitor, and ends frenetically while the cyclist pedals faster and faster.
Iván Carmona explained: "For us, music and emotions are directly related, and what symbolizes emotions better than a heart? It is something that we all have and that is born from ourselves, and the same thing happens with music: it is born from the inside, directly from the heart. It has been quite a challenge to create a composition to the rhythm of a heart".
