Music Recommendation: Bostich & Fussible

Lately I have been thoroughly enjoying seeking out new music artist.  I have previously highlighted Nouvelle Vague and my friend Warren Acuncius, but have yet another great find of Bostich & Fussible.  All three of these artists are of drastically different genres but are, in my opinion, equally enjoyable.

Bostich & Fussible’s  album Tijuana Sound Machine, released in 2008, is a fusion of electronica and the sounds of Northern Mexico.  Bostich, his given name being Ramon Amezcua, has been releasing work since 1988 and is usually recognized due to his affiliation with The Nortec Collection, a collection of works from electronica producers.  In the late 90’s he joined with Pepe Mogt to work on the Nortec Collection, but also released their individual works under the name Bostich & Fussible and The Tijuana Sound Machine.

The album is consistently good.  I have posted my three favorite tracks for your reader’s listening enjoyment.

“Unknown Title”

I stumbled upon this first track thanks to a friend.  Unfortunately the track is not from the Tijuana Sound Machine album I own (as Amezcua and Mogt initially released a Tijuana Sound Machine 1, Tijuana Sound Machine 2, then a compilation). This track is not on the compilation so I do not know the track name.

“Nortena del Sur”

“The Clap”

    I picked up this album last week on your recommendation and I love it! Like most people, my favorite track is "Mama Loves Nortec" but I also like "The Clap" and "Akai 47"...the whole album rocks, actually. Was seriously dancing in the car to this one.

    Thanks for posting this.

    Oh my god Rachel! That first track is like, seriously, one of my favorite songs of all time (this year). Mike and Cheryl have it on a mix, and we blast it on every road trip. It's an awesome song for parking-lot dancing around like an idiot. I've never know the name of the song or the band. I can't believe it's on your blog!
  • Ha ha! Ben, that is hilarious! Thanks for sharing.
  • Hey thanks for the music, I love the first track!!! Id love to see someone put this track to animation, or remix it with a little bob marley vocals or something, its just has the fun feel to it. :) THANKS!!

    You need to add the KEXP Song of the Day podcast to your list. They play some great music and you can add some good diversity to your music collection.
  • Ah, very good info. I am subscribed to Magnatunes, but not KEXP. Thanks!
