Nortec Collective Presents Bostich + Fussible has announced that ‘Motel Baja,’ the third and final installment of their critically-acclaimed “Border Trilogy,” will be released on September 16th, to celebrate Mexican Independence Day.
‘Motel Baja’ is the highly anticipated follow-up to ‘Tijuana Sound Machine’ and ‘Bulevar 2000,’ the first two albums in the “Border Trilogy,” which were both nominated for Grammy and Latin Grammy’s.
“After this, Nortec is done,” explains Fussible. “There will be no more Nortec. This is the last album”
This year, Nortec Collective is celebrating its 15th anniversary since first emerging from a burgeoning Tijuana electronic scene and inventing a new style of music they called Nortec - a fusion of Norteño ("from the North") and Techno.
Documenting the collision between electronic music characterized by heavy dance beats and traditional forms of Mexican music performed with live instrumentation, Nortec Collective paved the way for a new generation of producers and DJs that have reinvented electronic music from a global perspective.
Bostich (Ramón Amezcua) and Fussible (Pepe Mogt) are two of the original co-founders of Nortec Collective, and have continued to push the envelope with an explosive live show that has toured extensively across the globe, performing at major US festivals like Bonnaroo and Coachella, and around the world from Scandinavia to Brazil to China.
Nortec Collective Presents Bostich + Fussible will perform at the inaugural Supersonico Festival in Los Angeles on October 11th with Calle 13, Café Tacvba and more.
