Manu Chao

[cj001f]

= extra cool.

[slim]

All the little electronic noise makers start to get kind of annoying after awhile. Overall, I'm a fan though.

[Foggy_Goggles]

"Welcome to Tijuana
Tequila, Sex, and Marujana"

Me likey including the 80s video game sounds

[meatdrink9]

It's fun for awhile, but I've found myself slowly deleting it from most of my playlists. It's made appearances in Ostness flicks in the past.

[hoarhey]

I dig Manu Chao, fit in very well with my world traveling days for work.
I think the video game sound in Welcome to Tijuana is from Galaga.
What do u think?

I really dug that song, but I'm pretty medium on them as a whole.

If you like Manu Chao, try to get your hands on some Mano Negra. It's his old band, and I like them even better. Similar style, but more of the fast stuff.

...I think it's from Centipede when the dudes start dropping.

I agree with the "it's cool, but gets old after a while". I still like to hear Manu Chao, I just need a few months in between. King of the Bongo is another sweet tune...how many records does he have out? I'm only really aware of "Clandestino", and I think my buddy has a live album I may or may not have a copy of.

and I'm pretty sure it is centipede.

[klar]

i like it, although like so many things it does get on your nerves after a while.

je n'ai pas peur de la route
faudrait voir, faut qu'on y goute
lalalala
tryo is kind of similar www.tryo.com
c'est l'hymne de nos campagnes, de nos rivièrs, de nos montagnes...

got that going round my head now

[hoarhey]

Manu Chao's other album is Proxima Estacion: Esperanza. It came out in 2001, which was after Clandestino, which was 1998? I like them both.
Songs on Proxima Estacion that I like are "Merry Blues" and "Que hora son?" and "Me gustas tu"...

Foggy/vinz: You guys could be right that it's centipede from which the sample is taken. I have to listen to "Welcome to Tijuana" again. It's been a while.

Did anybody do this? I can email a few mp3s if you want a sampling. Manu Chao also produced a cd by Amadou & Mariam, an African couple that's pretty cool. Same style as his albums.

Camilo, I have a Mano Negra album or two. I prefer his solo stuff, but I'd be interested to hear something other than Hamburger Fields or Santa Maradona. Check your pm's.

[hoarhey]

Foggy/Vinz:
Thinking about this last night at the gym. I also think I had some flashbacks based on the Old School Vids thread. The sound is not from Centipede (very low sound, too low to be that used in the song), but is from Galaga while the ships fly down from formation.

[MakersTeleMark]

On a related note, when I was in Argentina a few years ago I came across an album covering Manu Chao songs. I had just begun hearing Manu Chao at the time and was taken aback by my own obliviousness. The Madou & Mariam album is too similar for me to really get into it, it shares that same fade out quality as both Clandestino and Esperanza.

[Core Shot]

How the fuck did I just “discover” an awesome artist older than me that has been popular for twenty years.

I dig this dude.
Many rhythms
Many languages

Many good tunes.

[MakersTeleMark]

Holy shit that's an old bump.

As in 15 years.

[ticketchecker]

Saw him at ACL Fest awhile back, great set

Well, yeah, that’s how out of touch I am with once popular culture.

Rather than start a thread, I used the jong search function.

Only to find out if only I had paid attention 15 years ago, I could have been hip for the last 15 years.

[ötzi]

Nah.

Manu Chao's cool though. I don't know a ton of his music but my son really got to be a fan living in Spain and turned me on to him a few years ago.

[Boissal]

He was huge BITD of my youth in France. My first forays into music my parents didn't listen to was his stuff with La Mano Negra. They were already on the tail end of their run but he was starting his solo career and playing live everywhere all the time. Those were good days. Clandestino and Esperanza were the soundtrack of my last years in France before crossing the pond. So many memories...

[basinbeater]

I went to a rowdy as fuck manu Chao concert back in 2000 in santiago chile. Clandestino album was still pretty fresh. Still a fan.

sent from Utah.

[MontuckyFried]

Wow. Can't believe this jam is freaking 20 years old now. Thanks for the bringing up the memories. This was HUGE worldwide back in the day. I heard it at bars in Spain, Germany, Mexico, even Japan.




Also, anyone remember this one?
