cool May 3, 2008 I'm new to electronic music, but I really enjoyed this album. I got it because I love Pacha Massive, and this CD was recommended for people who like them, and I found it to be fun, groovy, and exciting all at the same time. Definitely worth a listen.
Mexican lounge-downtempo January 11, 2007 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This CD might not grab you right away but after several listens it seems much better. It turns out that this is one of those discs that can be played most anytime as the music is a nice mix of electronica via Mexico City complete with all of the cultural influences of the megalopolis. It is Latin-lounge in its delivery; like modern day cocktail theme music that takes abrupt excursions into the vast forays of electronica. Lots of cool songs that are different from your generic electronica. There is a exotic feel to many of the songs. Great songs include "Jaja Pipi" which must borrow samples from the original song by the Red Holt Trio but the results are more sophisticated with a megalopolitan flair,"Cyber Mambo" is a nice dance number based in the rhytms of the fifties dance craze but perked up with mad beats,"Juan Rulfo," the famous Mexican author is honored with a song that is chic Latin lounge, the dub wise tune "Dub-A El Tiempo es Muy Largo" is a nice slow reggae driven beat with effects droping in and out over speaking vocals,"Drume Negrita" is a piano introduced song that mixes well with the downtempo beats is like music to sip a glass of wine to atop the Latin American Building overlooking the city lights below and "Bienvenidos a Mi Disco" is a slow rhythmic danceable groove that makes you feel happy and reminds me of the sound made famous by Nortec where norteno horns are sampled. The disc has a few less than memorable songs but overall it is a good one to throw in the rotation or for creating that special downtempo-Latin-lounge playlist. If you like electronica and Latin music than this CD might appeal to your tastes.
Disappointing October 25, 2006 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Sorry, but this felt like remix 101 - How To Get It Wrong. It neither delved in depth to any melody, mexicana / nortec styles, or remix-electronica. I bought it based on Amazon samples and it's dived straight to the bottom of my cd racks. Personally, I'd look elsewhere, but good luck to the artist - I hope he works out what he wants to express, and makes his next recordings with some genuine soul.

I sincerely believe in other reviews before getting this cd, and was totally disappointed. The music is boooooooring and is just a geeky mix of old records, but that's all. Doesn't move me.
MIS March 15, 2006 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
"Mejico Maxico" by MIS is a super-cool, super-hip DJ/producer cd from Mexico City.
I found the music very spacey and forward-thinking. It's tons of fun. It's a little goofy at times, but never cheesey.
The music is upbeat and happy. There are some Mexican influences throughout. You don't need to speak Spanish to enjoy this CD.
Overall, a really cool CD. Very promising debut disc - all-around good stuff!
