Nortec
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nortec (from the combination of "norteño" and "techno") is an electronic musical genre from Tijuana (a border city in Baja California, Mexico) that first gained popularity in the 2001. Nortec music is characterized by hard dance beats and samples from traditional forms of Mexican music such as Banda sinaloense and Norteño - unmistakably Mexican horns are often used.
In 1999, Pepe Mogt was experimenting with both Norteño (popular folk music in Tijuana) Sounds and Electronica ( techno ). This sound would turn out to be Nortec, a style he created and later shared with a group of like minded musicians that would eventually turn into the Nortec Collective.
Situated near the United States border, and in the US cities of Los Angeles and San Diego, Tijuana's musical scene is heavily influenced by the border, and in particular the United States and Europe.
