Soy Sauce

for fans of tom tom club, the avalanches and the beastie boys. camilo lara never set out with the intention of taking his personal musical career seriously. at first, he was simply creating holiday mixes for friends. but then his friends convinced him that he should take his songs off his computer and into the studio. now four years later, lara, known as the mexican institute of sound (mis) is building on the momentum of his breakthrough sophomore release 'pinata' with a highly-anticipated new album 'soy sauce'. 'soy sauce' traverses lara's wild musical imagination with a witty sense of humour for good effect ... whether it's converting the traditional sounds of cumbia to a full-on electronic dance track, paying tribute to hip hop luminaries j dilla and biggie with mexican sonidos, or singing a love song as if serge gainsbourg had spent time in the mayan jungle. the album also includes two collaborations with close friends joselo rangel from caf tacuba and ad rock from the beastie boys.
