Picks for your busy Friday night: ► The Ruby Friedman Orchestra , with their debut release on the way and "(That's Why I Let You) Hang Around" already in your iPod (we hope) , hold forth at the House of Blues on a bill that also includes the Hush and Silent Treatment . ► The good news is that Canadian synth-freaks Gobble Gobble have changed their name. They're now called Born Gold . The better news is that their new album "Bodysongs" is spazzy fun. They visit the Echo [...]

Come see the awesome that is Day 1 of Bumbershoot! We've got all the highlights, from Mavis Staples to Vetiver.

Nortec es una banda que llego para quedarse, arriesgada, atrevida, irreverente pero con un sonido y un sabor que ¡woow!, es imposible resistirse a ellos.

Puede que el éxito de la banda sea en buena medida el hecho de que no es un solo grupo, no es un par de personas trabajando, son un colectivo que se refresca con ideas de muchas personas.

[Happy weekend. Just a reminder that today is the day tickets go on sale for the Hollywood Bowl season . Yeah, including the National's show on the 10-year anniversary of 9/11.] I don't wanna say that if you aren't out tonight you aren't breathing, but it is the busiest Saturday night in recent memory: ► Their sophomore album "Helplessness Blues" now safely stashed in the repository of your choice, Fleet Foxes bring their lush harmonizing to [...]

Outside of Rock in Rio , no festival features a more eclectic bill than the Quebec City Summer Festival . Last year, for example, Rammstein, Arcade Fire, and the Black Eyed Peas all played .

Other confirmed notables include Dropkick Murphys, Omar Souleyman, Cut Copy, M. Ward, Cage the Elephant, Dawes, The [...]

Nortec Collective stopped by Veronica People's Club for an Open Bar session for Fader TV. Watch the performance below and cross your fingers for Tijuana's favorite beat pushers to win a Grammy for their latest release, "Bulevar 20003 that you can purchase here . I wonder if the next release will be an iPad one like the one the Gorillaz did, because I wouldn't be mad if they did. Nortec Collective - Hiperboreal - Don Loope dub Remix By pepe Mogt [mp3]

Bulevar 2000 , le nouvel album de Bostich et Fussible succède à « Tijuana Sound Machine », deux fois nominé aux Grammy Awards en 2006. Alors que ce dernier album racontait un voyage autour de la ville, « Bulevar 2000 » suit la voiture qui quitte Tijuana par l'une de ses routes les plus connues. [...]

It's good to see Nortec Collective's music being used for Vice's Guide to Mexican Narco Cinema. The funny thing is that I was talking to some friends this past weekend about El Ponchis and not looking at this kid the wrong way because the possibility of getting clipped was pretty high. I wonder if he'll be tried as an adult or if he'll escape prison in exchange for a " mordida " or two. Nortec Collective Presents : Bostich + Fussible-Arboles de la Barranca [mp3]

Bulevar 2000, Nortec Collective Presents: Bostich + Fussible Nacional Records, México Rating: 80 ★★★★ By Carlos Reyes "Bulevar 2000" shouts "this is not a love song", and yet it is. They still got it. Nortec Collective's most prominent members Bostich (Ramon Amezcua) + Fussible (Pepe Mogt) have not only hold on to their sound with unmatched continuity, they keep carving windows to their borderland landscape; the site of Tijuana's vivacity as an ethereal sin city with the oddest first-hand infrastructure. The pair has solidified the sound of Nortec; it's [...]

If there was one advantage to growing up in Phoenix, AZ, (other than that I now can withstand temperatures above 110 degrees Fahrenheit) it'd have to be my exposure to Norteño music - a polka-related genre from northern Mexico. Whether inside an awesome taco shop or walking through certain neighborhoods, residents of Phoenix are inundated with Norteño. So, after years of hearing this music in the background, I thought I had a firm grasp on the genre-that is until I discovered the Nortec Collective . Comprised of four musicians from Tijuana, this ensemble (represented on this release by two members, Bostich and Fussible [...]

If you didn't see - or just can't recall - we spent some time down in Asheville, NC a couple weekends ago. We were invited to this little Halloween party. You know, nothing too big, a few legendary acts, several up and comers, and a variety of DJs. I think they called it MoogFest . Ring a bell? Okay, we thought so. Well, in addition to throwing a kick-off party and running around for coverage , Consequence of Sound also sat down with a handful of the lineup's artists. A fairly diverse group, if [...]

Bostich + Fussible played to a pretty hyped crowd over the weekend in Austin for Fun Fun Fun Fest according to Austin Sound .

Three decades ago, Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz took a break from their role as rhythm section for the Talking Heads, headed to Jamaica, and returned with a landmark album ( Tom Tom Club , Sire Records) that proved white people could be real funky. All these years later, the band's unique mix of reggae, Afrobeat and funk is still inspiring artists to cover, remix, and sample those tracks. As the title suggests, this recent release includes live tracks, but the real winners here are the remixes by Ozomatli, Nortec Collective, Money Mark, The Pinker Tones and others; theses artists [...]

En lo que parece será el evento masivo con el que cerraremos en México un año verdaderamente brutal en cuanto a conciertos se refiere; ya se anunció el cártel completo del Festival Sonorama , que se llevará a cabo el próximo 13 de noviembre en el Parque Alameda Poniente de la capital mexicana, y que tendrá como protagonistas a los señores de Korn y Cypress Hill , además de grupos y artistas de la talla de Chris Cunningham , Los Amigos Invisibles, The Octopus Project (mis favoritos sin duda) y [...]

The fifth installment of Austin's Fun Fun Fun Fest ( purchase tickets here ) will be taking place in only a few shorts weeks time (Nov. 5th-7th).

That brings up to the Kick-off and After Parties news, with a few yet TBA and Special Guest acts being announced in the next few days. [ Fun Fun Fun [...]

Os hipsters/alternas cariocas vivem reclamando que não temos mais shows legais no Rio. Mas quando tem, nenhum desses reclamões vão ou se quer falam sobre (Sim, eu sei quem vocês são). Você por acaso sabe que esta rolando O PERC PAN , Panorama Percussivo Mundial? Foi este festival que trouxe ano passado o Beirut, se lembra? Esse ano ele voltou para sua déciam sétima edição com uma escalação de peso. Ontem já rolou um show histórico da The Orchestre Poly-Rythmo de Cotonou. Os caras simplesmente botaram a Oi Casa Grande pra dançar. Saboreie um [...]

Nortec Collective (o antes llamado Colectivo Nortec ) durante muchos años sin duda ha sido uno de los proyectos regionales en México más vanguardistas y con un punto muy claro como concepto: la experimentación. Nunca nos pudimos imaginar que un género como la música electrónica podría ser mezclado con elementos tan ajenos a ella como la tambora, una tuba, el acordeón e incluso un bajo con sonido norteño. Todos estos elementos se conjugan más allá de la perfección en el sonido de Nortec Collective , haciendo de su concepto (visual+sonoro) toda una delicia apreciada en [...]
