Alpha (stylized as αlpha) is the third studio album by Spanish singer Aitana. It was released on 22 September 2023 by Universal Spain, almost three years after its predecessor 11 Razones (2020). For this new project, the singer enlisted habitual producers Andrés Torres and Mauricio Rengifo, besides Big One, Mr. Naisgai, Kuinvi, Orlando Vitto and Renzo Bravo, to create an electronic and dance music-centered album that would make her explore new fields and break away from her usual pop sound without completely abandoning it. She describes Alpha as her "journey towards the light, with stories of resilience, hope, and love". Primarily an electropop record, Alpha is characterized by themes of sensuality and empowerment, and features guests vocals by Danna Paola, Nicki Nicole, and Rels B.[1]

Three singles have been released from the album so far: "Los Ángeles", the lead single, was released on 30 March 2023, and peaked at number three on the Spanish PROMUSICAE chart. It was followed by "Las Babys", and "Mi Amor", which peaked at number six and nine respectively.[2] Alpha also contains Aitana's 2021 standalone single "Formentera", and "En el Coche" in its standard tracklist, which served "as a bridge between the previous and the actual era" at the time.[3] And both peaked among the Spanish top 10 singles chart.
