I totally dig this song! Super fun, great beat, cool accordion. I just bought it on Google Play. I wish more music like this (edge of hip-hop...or further, aka macklemore, rooted in good music) made it on here. But Bill knows BEST!

Thanks for the discovery RP

 Here I sit tapping my toes to this and reading comments.  I stumble across this and had to laugh.  I really do like this song, but I love the distressed bee-man!!!

And this still deserves maybe a 5 or 6 whilst Basement Jaxx a 7 or 8.  But seems proximity to Monterrey maybe is the key, or maybe 'safe and comfortable' world music are the keywords, we can pretend it's world music when it's nice and safely just down the road in CA for those in the big continent.

 
Erm, for those of us in the Midlands Sprawl, anything from North of Sheffield counts as 'world music'. I figure that this counts as 'world music' on account of it not being anglo-saxon, and coming from Mexico, which is rather a long way away from us.

I wish Bill or Becky would sort out the diacritics in this song title...

So this follows two records after Basement Jaxx (Scars?) and they rate a 2 and this a 7 to 8?  What's happening here, everyone getting so chintzy and careful in their old age?
Not that this bad, it's catchy, but it's ever so safe and comfortable...

 
So what do you want on RP - Einsturzende Neubaten? Harrison Birtwhistle?

I've always been a sucker for an accordion, so this gets the nod from me.

Dig the glyphs in the title as well - guess Chrome/Mac needs a new font pack.
