Hermano Paulson dice: This alt-dj project began with a beautiful Augie Meyers track, then expanded to all sorts of Tex-Mex musical flavors. Soon, we were pulling out obscurities –- mostly Spanish-language tracks – from both sides of the Atlantic. I had the good fortune to have some guidance from Bubba El Rey in Espana. Common themes emerged and with it, the title. Soon, we found one single CD was not enough to contain our concept – conceived as a musical soundtrack for a great party. And like a party, we didn’t quite know when to stop!

Hermano doowad dice: I was going to say the same thing about how when ld answered my Augie with Sir Douglas, I know I had found another mixing brother. In fact, as we were finally wrapped this thing up, I lost track of who picked what and it doesn’t matter. Hope it makes your noche vieja a little more sabrosita. Disk 1 has more cheezy organ than you can shake a stick at, while Disk 2 has more traditional mariachi, end of party drunken sing-a-longs.

The cover art was inspired by my favorite restaurant in Guadalajara for tequila pachanga botanitas, Las Siete Esquinas
