The Me Gustas - New album, Benthic Exploration out this summer!

  • ALBUM UPDATE *

Here it is people, the new album artwork and track listing for our upcoming album, Benthic Exploration! Tracking begins in a few weeks and should have this out to the world by late July! This is going to be a 6 track release, with a possible seventh tune (if we feel it is ready).

Replicating the ocean we love so much, this will take you from the serene to the chaotic. An aural smorgasbord if you will.

Tracks:

1) Intro
2) Deep Water Blackout
3) Conduit
4) Hydrothermal Vent
5) Hot Mix
6) Outro

and possibly a cover of a very famous song Smile

Keep your eyes peeled as we document the process, always fun, but always intense. We are excited to get this new release out to all of you. Thank you for the support and encouragement. Back to the grindstone!

Mil gracias.

The Me Gustas - New Album Benthic Exploration - Summer 2017

Monday, Monday,

The Nor Cal misfits, better known as The Me Gustas, are venturing beneath the sea for inspiration for their next release! Immersed in deep sea literature, documentaries, etc. it is inevitable that this will influence our next release. This is looking to be a six song release and we feel this is going to be the strongest representation of our sound. Until then, make sure to add our previous releases to your collection for free at:

New Cruncher CD called "STORMY"

Herbert phoned me a few days ago and told me that he has 26 tunes in the can.
At least 18 will find its way onto the new CD called "STORMY".
In the new year he will start to have them pressed.
So let´s hope for some stunning tracks (this time I have not received a pre-sales cdr
so I don´t know what he will offer!???)
