New Nortec Collective album set for May 6th release
Press Release posted March 24, 2008
Tijuana's electronic music leaders Nortec Collective have announced the May 6th release of Bostich + Fussible: Tijuana Sound Machine (Nacional Records). Fans are already familiar with the stylings of Bostich and Fussible as they were the masterminds behind hit tracks "Tengo La Voz", "Tijuana Bass", and "Tijuana Makes Me Happy" off the double Latin Grammy-nominated album, Tijuana Sessions, Vol. 3 (Nacional). The new album will be available at digital outlets on April 29th, just in time for Cinco De Mayo, and in stores May 6th. Nortec Collective Presents Bostich + Fussible will be performing several album release parties in early May with a four-piece backing band.
Pepe Mogt's (aka Fussible) words on the new album
"With 'Tijuana Sessions, Vol. 3', we focused on fusing vocoders, synthesizers and drum machines with the Norteņo flavor," explains Pepe Mogt (Fussible). "This time around, we really relied more on the acoustic sound. We tried to achieve a better balance between the acoustics and the electronics. While some tracks on 'Tijuana Sound Machine' aren't even a month old yet, others have been around for a couple of years. We actually wrote many of these songs while on the road promoting 'Tijuana Sessions.'"
