Inspired by European teen sexploitation films of the 60's and 70's, Mexico City band Matorralman makes surf music with an electronic edge. Front man, Miguel Rizo, describes his music as "...a party without end-complete with music to lose your manners to...". Appropriately titled, "Gauteque Estelar", which translates to "stellar party", this is fun stuff. Now, everybody dance! Rebecca Ruth
