Alterablesperanza, Mr. Racoon Delhotel Records, México Rating: 70 by Pierre Lestruhaut Even if our small community of online music lovers from Latin America has been hearing about Robert Polo for only a couple of years, the amount of material he has released under his different projects is far from negligible. A few years ago he was part of CF favorite En Ventura and their surprising melodic psych-pop album Los Gandharvas , while also taking part in projects like 60 Tigres with its [...]

Si actualmente escuchas una banda cuyo sonido parece sacado del 'teen angst' de principios de los 902s, es difícil tomarla en serio y respetarla. Y es que todos hemos crecido rodeados de compañeros de escuela, amigos, y otros contemporáneos de generación que han endiosado a las bandas de esa época, idolizado a [...]
If you have an easy stomach, think body fluids are just gross, or are just deeply disturbed by blood, you might want to skip the brand new video by Fuck Her, Or The Terrorists Win. Featuring great HipHop-induced vocals by Baby Vargas, "Bounce Back" is the second single out of the duo's sophomore EP Fuck Brooklyn . This is a song that works on extremes, and the visceral video (directed by FHOTTW's Bul) does pick up the overtone pretty well, romanticizing a breakup with a horrific scene of a guy bleeding to death after his [...]
Ha pasado algún tiempo desde que saliera a la luz el We Come In Peace de d3NdRON, y como a las bandas pertenecientes al sello Happy-Fi les gusta siempre tener contentos a todos los fans, han lanzado... RockandRadio, Transmite la Red.

Fuck Brooklyn, Fuck Her, or the Terrorists Win Delhotel Records, Mexico Rating: 77 By Carlos Reyes Unabashed electropop that sounds like rock; it's the latest well-heeled step forward from Monterrey's Fuck Her, or the Terrorists. The duo comprised by Roberto Polo (Mr. Racoon) and Roger Camara (Bul) finds two of Mexico's most interesting personas working together. They have so many bands under their arms, but this sure seems like one of their dearest projects; in fact, we could [...]
New flat-out gorgeous video from Club Comfort, one of Monterrey's best under-the-radar bands for their newest single "Jazzin in the Replay." This is the first cut from their forthcoming album, it the impressive Brujita Pop , which we included on our list of Delhotel Records Essentials . If this is the first time you've heard of them and yet feel so familiar with the band you're in the right track, it's part of the Casa Buenaventura collective, home of 60 Tigres, Fuck Her or the Terrorists Win and En Ventura, they all share the dynamic lead voice of [...]

It's been a while since we had the idea of compiling a list of our favorite netlabel releases, these albums make up a big chunk of the music we review so we've decided to let the list aside in order to keep the -Best Albums of the Decade- upcoming especial more unexpected. But because we're serious followers of Delhotel Records , the half label half free music storage site, and to applaud their efforts in its first anniversary we decided to go through their catalog to dig deep for what we belief is the cream of the crop, the [...]

GARAGE EP, 60 TIGRES Independiente, México Rating: 65 By Carlos Reyes 60 Tigres was another great surprise to come out of Monterrey last year, Los Emigrantes was an impressive, firm and confident debut and it always crossed my mind that they could be as required as their fellow power electro rock band Kinky. 60 Tigres is of course less experimental and less suited for [...]

Today I was deeply surprised to find out that the album I've heard the most this year isn't Mermaid Sashimi , Jewellery , Bailar y Llorar or Merriweather Post Pavillion as I predicted. This title belongs to En Ventura's Los Gandharvas which I never got a chance to review last year because I didn't know of its existence. Although the band has never actually dissolved in its entirely, En Ventura had lost two of its members who instead devoted their time to other projects such as 60 Tigres and Mr. Racoon. We [...]

SPIN Earth picks up MAP, there's interesting things coming up hopefully, we're happy it will finally get some bigger exposure. I really hope you're ok with our choices so far: Natalia Lafourcade, Juan Son, Mexican Institute of Sound and this month Mr. Racoon , an artist that not only fits the idea of MAP (to showcase an artist internationally) but also fits locally as it doesn't have enough attention in Mexico itself, make sure to have Katy somewhere in your hard drive, it's sublime. "There's plenty of reason to support a global [...]
MEXICO : Club Fonograma Mr. Racoon - Ferry 3 Mr. Racoon is one of several projects by Roberto Polo, among them 60 Tigres and Fuck Her, Or The Terrorists Win . This is by far his most charming moment yet. His music unfolds the very best of a prolific songwriter that, as opposed to what his music may sound like, is a maximalist taking the lo-fi production and his shimmering voice to heroic amplitudes. Ferry 3 is a cut [...]

______________________________ ______________________________ _______ KATY. Mr. Racoon (Delhotel, Mexico) " Katy brings the very best of alternative pop, if that musical field exists at all. The album moves on fluently, in a revelatory phase that unfolds itself with much sympathy, one of the first high quality albums of the year." MP3: "Ferry 3" Review [...]

" Fuck Her, or The Terrorists Win es un dúo de pop electrónico compuesto por dos pilares de la nueva ola regiomontana en el que podemos encontrar increíbles reminiscencias de música presentada hasta hoy sólo por bandas como The Cansecos , o en el más popular de los casos, The Postal Service . Y no es de sorprenderse, ya que de algún modo Roberto Polo ( 60 Tigres , Mr. Racoon , Club Comfort y En Ventura ) vendría a ser algo así como un Ben Gibbard mexicano, mientras que Roger Cámara ( [...]

KATY, MR. RACOON Del Hotel, Mexico **** Rating: 80 By Carlos Reyes As usual, the first worthy releases of any new year are made by net labels whose free albums don't have to suffer from competition or the economic outlet of last December. Recently, I've been paying attention to the releases by Del Hotel Records thanks to one of my new favorite music blogs: Noche Pasta . Del Hotel is another Mexican label offering free hostage for independent bands, it's not as [...]
