Mariana Ochoa, the renowned singer, actress, and businesswoman, is currently captivating audiences with her latest single, “Remolino.” Released on March 13, this ballad in the regional Mexican genre, penned by María Bernal and Érika Ender, is quickly becoming a fan favorite.

Pardavé (2024) from Milenio, the song delves into the complexities of tumultuous relationships, where the singer yearns for a more balanced love (Pardavé, 2024).
«“Remolino” is about that boyfriend who takes your breath away, which is not healthy, and you look for a new, more balanced love, but it is not the same,» Ochoa explained in a press conference, as reported by Milenio (Pardavé, 2024).
A Glimpse into the 'Remolino' EP
“Remolino” serves as the second single from Ochoa's forthcoming EP, also titled “Remolino.” This EP promises a diverse collection of six songs, each showcasing a unique blend of pop with genres like bachata and regional Mexican music. Ochoa plans to release these tracks gradually over the coming months, creating anticipation among her followers.
The music video for “Remolino” features actors and hosts Carlos Arenas and Mauricio Mancera, who portray Ochoa's boyfriend and lover, respectively. Their interactions with Ochoa, dressed as a bride, add a dramatic flair to the visual narrative.

Addressing Past Controversies

She also emphasized that all members are free to use OV7 and La Onda Vaselina songs.
