MEXTRONICA es un mapa sonoro que recorre diferentes puntos cardinales y distintas propuestas de la escena electrónica en México. Sonidos que van del elektro-pop al minimal tecno pasando por la IDM, la indietronica y el jazz digital. incluye 12 temas de Ford Proco, Loopdrop, Carlos García, Destreza, Transistor, Aquadelfín, Kobol, Mendoza, Polardroids, Década 2, Los Maestros del Jet Set, y Jackson.

The Mexican electronic scene is really starting to grow into its own; but even though you can find out plenty about the Nortec Collective, Google names like Los Maestros Del Jet Set or Aquadelfin and you‘d better know how to read Spanish. Luckily, as most of their songs are instrumentals, culture needs no words. This disc gives you an aperitivo taste of the scene, ranging from the operatic Decada 2 (an act that borrows more from Klaus Nomi and Italo electro than Tijuana brass) to Ford Proco (almost as graceful as Pepito) to Jackson (who kicks it like Squarepusher).

LA FUNCION DE REPULSA -Cheapest Electronics At The Service Of Destruction

2003
Style - NO SYTLE, CYBER TRASH, INDUSTRIAL

01 Fresh Mind
02 Fresa

05 Blind Crash
06 Ser-Do
07 Victim-X
08 Desolado
09 Escupediablos
10 Empinado
11 Kind Of Sex
12 Parasite Controller


Si bien su 'no-estilo' sigue presente, es quizás la primera vez que lo electrónico parece llevar la batuta en un disco de La Función de Repulsa, Son 12 los temas que integran el álbum, todos ellos en menor o mayor forma enfocados hacia los ritmos, tendencia con la que el grupo desde un principio ha sentido apego. Noise Kontrol

La Función De Repulsa don't just measure up to expectations, they blow you away with their challenging abrasive output, still retaining melody and groove. Hard to find fault in this effort, if you like brutal electro industrial, then you will love this album, if you don't then you won't. Simple, really... Chain D.L.K.

12 Esquirla (Panoptica Remix)
13 FM Road (Bostich Nortec Mix)

Aerotechnopachecoambiental. Diferentes. Una brigada de demolición de estilos, sin deudas ni buenos propósitos. Trip hop para ver la luz virtual, electronoise para hurgar la mente entre trombones y campanitas, quitarras acústicas, hip hop marciano, pop electrónico para el 2020, rollo ambient y mucho más. Un disco expansivo con colaboraciones de luxe (Iaia Nona delichas, Peter Christopherson y John Balance del mítico grupo inglés Coil, mixes de Panóptica, Bostich y Nacho "Fangoria" Canut). Techno inteligente? Parece que sí. electrónica 4ever. La Banda Elastica

Hailing from electronically fertile Tijuana, techno iconoclasts Wito Lavot and Roberto Castañeda are Ford Proco.
A collaboration with members of like-minded veteran British acid-house outfit Coil (John Balance and Peter Christopherson), Vértigo De Lodo Y Miel (Vertigo of Mud and Honey) delves into nearly two decades of ambient dance sounds, recalling moments of '80s industrial techno ("Abzeichnen") and melodic pop grooves. The dreamy "SSW" and "FM Road" feature guest vocalists Chuy Picos and Iaia Morfin (Nona Delichas). Adhering to the Nimboestatic aesthetic of ethereal moods and textures, Vértigo brings an avant-garde, futurist feel to the table, defiantly proving it's light years away from most Latin alternative fare.
This album could easily be spun alongside the likes of Pole, Einstürzende Neubauten and nortec collective member Bostich, who offers a remix of "FM Road." Careful when looking down. CMJ
