Background and composition

"Punto 40" is a remake of the classic reggaeton song with the same name by Baby Rasta & Gringo. The cut represents the first preview of Saturno, Alejandro's third studio album, released in November 2022. The song is inspired by "the spirit of the opening theme" that "gives it a particular rave-like sound". Formed on the basis of classic reggaeton, with this sound, Alejandro departs from his recent synth-pop and disco focus, to deliver a hard-charging reggaeton rave track, thus securing his place in the clubs and lighting up the dance floor and leaving ashes in his wake.[2]
