history
Camilo Lara, originally from Mexico City , started the music project in 2006 after he had previously helped found the music label Suave Records and worked as a DJ for music groups such as Placebo and Le Hammond Inferno .
In the debut album, some Latin American music styles were combined, including norteña and cumbia . The specific sound results from the pairing with electro music .
After two more albums in 2007 and 2009, the Mexican Institute of Sound released the album Político in 2012 .

The sixth studio album Disco Popular was released on November 10, 2017 .
