Until this moment, I thought I was all alone in the world.

yeah, Los Tucanes had a great album last year and the year before, every year really
also: Julieta Venegas (Bueninvento is better than Si but the new song/video is DOPE), Celso Pina ("the rebel of the accordion," his new album is all about Che Guevara), Maldita Vecinidad.
For dancing: INSPECTOR, especially last years' Unidad, Cerveza, y Ska. "Ska Voovie Boobie Baby" was in my top 10 this last year; video (miniaturized band perving on hot supermodel in whose house they live, kind of like The Littles) is super-caliente!
And no thread can be complete without me bigging up my fave alternative chica: Natalia LaFourcade, who is kind of like what would happen if all awesome girl-pop music (Avril, Bjork, Nellie) were concentrated and sweetened and poured into a Mexican young woman.

I used to think
Bueninvento was better, too, but
Si has really been growing on me lately. And yeah, Natalia LaFourcade is fantastic, even if I'd rather stick flaming chopsticks in my ears than have to listen to one bar of Avril Lavigne or Nellie McKay.

It isn't real mexican music unless you got it on cdr with an ink jet quality cover at a saturday afternoon flea market on the southeast side for 4 bucks after bargaining from a guy who doesn't speak english.
Tylers picks are OTM. He totally stole my barbacoa-and-tortillas joint picks from me. ;)
