The Fall  Mexico Wax Solvent   Favoriting Your Future Our Clutter  Domino Recording Co.  2010  "The title of this song from 2010's Your Future Our Clutter alludes to the title of the previous album, Imperial Wax Solvent from 2008. According to MES: //// Cumming: There seems to be a crossover between LPs – you have the track "Mexico Wax Solvent". Is that picking up from Imperial Wax Solvent? //////// MES: Well, I like to do that. It’s a bit of a joke, that. I wouldn’t have put that on the LP, but the record company liked it and the producer liked it so I thought okay. It’s nice, isn’t it? I would’ve taken it off because of the Mexico thing, the Mexican flu thing. Looks like I’m trying to make an LP out of all these things. //////// Cumming: Swine flu. //////// MES: [Laughter] Yeah. It’s not about that at all. It’s about expats really. Do you know this? After Spain, Mexico is the next place for retirement expats. Spain is getting too crowded. I think I’ve been there. On a cruise. Yeah, yeah. I went to Cancún on a cruise once, an American cruise. I’ve always got on very well with Mexicans, in America. We’ve got a big following of them over there, in Frisco."    0:00:50 (Pop-up)

Tropica Magica  Love Buzz   Favoriting Smells Like Cumbia  Wampiro Records  2019  “Invigorating”, “brilliant”, and “charismatic” are just a few of the adjectives used to describe Tropa Magica. “The East L.A. duo made a name for themselves by combining alternative, grunge, and psychedelic rock with cumbia” - Says Spin magazine. Having toured nationally and on multiple southwest and west coast tours, they have supported established acts such as Los Lobos, Los Tigres del Norte, and Chicano Batman. The band has boldly and successfully taken on larger LA stages at venues such as The Microsoft Theater, El Rey Theater and The Hollywood Palladium. Of course this is a cover/reworking of the song Love Buzz "Love Buzz" is a song by Dutch rock band Shocking Blue. It was written by Robbie van Leeuwen and first released on the group's 1969 album At Home. The original song is a high point of classic psych rock. This song was also covered by Nirvana as their first single, released in 1988. This cover version is better than theirs.    0:14:06 (Pop-up)
Los Dug Dug's  Smog   Favoriting Smog  RCA  1973  Should you encounter who says the flute can't slap...you play them this and tell them to STFU. Los Dug Dug's is a rock group from Durango, Mexico, best known for their work in the 1960s and early 1970s. Los Dug Dug's is one of the first Mexican bands to show The Beatles' influence, and noted as one of the first Mexican rock bands to write their own songs in English, as well as cover songs by British and American acts in English, breaking what had up to then been an unwritten rule in Mexican rock. They have been called "a fiery and exciting band of acid rock iconoclasts" and their music described as "fuzzy, epic psych-rock jams" and "swirling, wild psychedelia" The band continues to perform today.    0:16:23 (Pop-up)
Javier Batiz and His Famous Finks  C'mon and Swim   Favoriting Javier Batiz and His Famous Finks  Eco  1964  Bátiz was born in Tijuana. In 1957 he founded a group called Los TJ's with which he collected musical influences that were received in the Mexican border cities ; blues and R&B from people like T-Bone Walker , Muddy Waters , BB King , Chuck Berry , Howlin' Wolf , James Brown , among others. By 1968 Javier Bátiz became a famous figure in the blues world in Mexico and was hired to play at the Terraza Casino bar, which turned out to be a successful season. Personalities from all walks of life gathered every night to present impressive crowds in that place, including politicians, artists and intellectuals. That popularity led him to perform in 1969 at the first massive open-air concert in Mexico. In 1969, Jim Morrison and The Doors performed 4 shows in Mexico. At the end of the concerts, the lonely Morrison fled to other bars in Mexico City. The " Terrace Casino " was one of them. Javier Bátiz played there every night. " We were friends, we had known each other since 1967, in a place called " Whiskey a Go-Go ", in Hollywood Ca. " , remembers Bátiz. It was not strange then that he visited him at the Terraza Casino, where Bátiz played every night from 12 at night until 5 in the morning. " Morrison would arrive after his show, at 1 or 1:30 in the morning, he would walk two or three blocks, throughout Insurgentes – the two places were on the same avenue –, to see me play," says Bátiz . " He would get very drunk and I would play ."    0:19:35 (Pop-up)
Los Monjes  Mi Mami Dijo   Favoriting Mi Mami Dijo 7"  CBS  1965  Los Monjes AKA "the spanish Monks" were a Mexican garage rock band from the late 1960s. The google spanish to english translator says this: The habit makes the monk Dressed in their peculiar habits, with a mystical image and playing a mixture of rock, classical music and jazz, the trio Los Monjes appeared on the musical scene, originally led by the virtuoso keyboardist Hesiquio Ramos, who already in 1966 performed with high quality complicated jazz songs such as Take Five and Caravana, and classic works such as The Warsaw Concert, in addition to composing original melodies that alternated with interpretations of popular covers such as La Casa del sol naciente and Hanky ​​Panky, with which they became known. . Until the end of his days, Jorge Julio Bracho (RIP) was always on the drums, who died due to liver disease; This was the son of the well-known film director Julio Bracho. On bass we must mention José Antonio Fernández de la Mora (also deceased), who although he was not an original member, was the one who lasted the longest with Los Monjes, and who recorded all the album material that exists of this strange group. both the LP captured live at the National Polytechnic Institute, and the one recorded in the studio.    0:22:59 (Pop-up)
Los Crazy Bird's  La Noche   Favoriting Napoleon  Dimsa  1966  Los Crazy Bird's began as Los Crazy Boys ...a moderately successful group in the early years of Mexican rock and roll, from what would later be known as "The Golden Age. It is said that they were the first group to use violins in a rock song in Mexico (their cover of the song "Corina, Corina") After recording the second LP, "Vivi" Hernández leaves the group and begins a brief solo career, and when he tries to return to Los Crazy Boys, they deny him entry to the group and record their 3rd and final LP. Meanwhile, Vivi formed the group ' Los Crazy Birds ', recording again on Discos Orfeón and later, 'Los Fratelos', recording on the Discos Cisne label, before continuing his career as a soloist. Fun Fact: Vivi was inspired by his hero Elvis and spent his remaining career years emulating him...until he died in 1977...days after the King himself...    0:25:01 (Pop-up)
Frente Cumbiero  Jaley Jaley   Favoriting Cera Perdidta  Salgaelsol & Biche  2020  Frente Cumbiero hail from Bogotá, Colombia and have certainly made a name for themselves as one of Colombia’s most evolutionary and radical groups from the past musical decade. Far from being solely ‘a band’, the group pride themselves on fusing typical Colombian musics, such as cumbia and porro, with dub and even electronica. They add a sprinkle of tropical joy and some virtual vitamin D to your musical collection during long winter evenings...    0:27:21 (Pop-up)
É Arenas  Tacquis   Favoriting LA Single  É Arenas  2023  When it comes to psychedelic Cumbia, there's Meridian Brothers and then there's Eduarado Arenas. Unlike Meridian Brothers' Sly and slippery approach, É Arenas picks you up, slaps you around and manhandles you like a luchidor. To a most pleasant effect, to be sure. But it's raw, it's crazy, wonky, wonderful, and weird! I don't think you'll find an more empassioned love song to Taquis anywhere else.    0:30:35 (Pop-up)

Romperayo 

Asi No Se Puede Muchaches   Favoriting

Así No Se Puede Muchaches 

Souk 

2022 

Romperayo is distinguished by the rhythm section, probably because the band was formed by the “capitán” of the new generation of Colombian percussionists: drummer Pedro Ojeda, who also plays in Los Pirañas, Palanca, CieloMama, Frente Cumbiero, Ondatrópica and Mucho Indio. The album titles translates to "It's Not That Way, Guys" Romperayo sets itself apart from Ojeda’s other projects though with its aim to dig up often unknown historical samples creating an anthropological conversation between listener and musician.

El Origen 

Nacional Records 

2013 

In 2008, when the wave of violence descended on the city of Tijuana, three friends, Moisés Horta, Moisés López and Reuben Torres began to create their own home parties where they created what they now call “son rhythm” and that was the birth of Los Macuanos, one of the most interesting electronic music groups on any side of the border. What is the mission of Los Macuanos with their music? “We seek to create an imaginary that is hyperrealism but with a very abstract touch, or almost science fiction to reflect the situation that exists in Mexico, and especially in the time in which we live where reality is filtered through a machine"

La Chinaca  Sin Título   Favoriting   Self Released (Bandcamp)  2022  The title translates from Spanish to English as "Untitled". Of course, this band are from London, UK, which I had not been expecting. According to their bandcamp writeup for this track: "If La Chinaca’s debut single, a narcotic reconfiguring of Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game” as a flickering fever dream, was the hazy release at the end of a long night, then “Sin Titulo”, its follow-up, represents a beginning. // Movement, dance, hedonism are all crucial to the La Chinaca ethos but there’s always something gnawing away at the group, a need to better understand their environment and their sentience, and this seeps whole heartedly into “Sin Titulo”, as it does the rest of a debut album that is slowly evolving into existence, for “Sin Titulo” marks the birth of the porifera (sea sponge) and with it the beginning of a journey. // A droplet, a sphere, a centre without reunion, the porifera is preparing to enter the noosfera via the deep blue sea. Its survival is our survival, its tale unravelling our complexities as its conscious awakens. On “Sin Titulo” we begin to understand La Chinaca’s mission. // Agents of sonic futurity, drawing inspiration from Mexico’s infamous guerrilleros liberales (soldiers without uniform), La Chinaca use tropical rhythms to create a dystopian cumbiaverse full of fables guided by the future. Here is its prelude. // released September 2, 2022" La Chinaca (Bandcamp)    0:51:37 (Pop-up)

northguineahills:

↳ Kristine @9:49
pulque is fermented agave sap. It almost has the consistency of maple syrup (not quite as viscuous), and it can be flavored. Since it's still actvely fermenting, it will continue to ferment in your stomach, so, if you're not careful, you'll continue to become intoxicated long afer you stopped drinking. it used to be considered a peasants drink, so when i was really young, it was hard to find except in the poorest barrios. by the 2010s, it's became hip, and new ones sprung up, especially next mexican university campuses. It can't be transported, as it has to be made fresh, which if you find pulque in the States, it's usually watery and not that great. i love it!

Babs, your mind would be blown! it is really authentic Mexico here. One storey stucco buildings, really beautiful spanish colonial building with inner courtyards to drink excellent coffee, the restaurants are amazing-its where i first tried mole, and saw crickets for sale at the market. i was supposed to go teach in Ixtapa, but it never happened
