¿Cuál Es La Razón? ( ft. @natalialafourcade ) is now available on all streaming platforms!

When folks heard the Ghost Train Orchestra arrangement on our song “What Is the Reason for It?”, I had a few people remark about how “it has a Mexican groove”. So, we approached Camilo Lara at Mexican Institute of Sound, whom I’ve known for years about doing a remix of the tune. The original version is a duet between myself and Hayley Williams, but Camilo and I thought about having those lines be sung in Spanish on this version, which Camilo turned into a wonderful cumbia. (Cumbia is a groove that originated with the Afro Columbian community and has since mutated and spread throughout Latin America- you can’t help dancing to it... the band and I recently saw an amazing cumbia band in New Orleans!)

Who would that singer be? Well, not too long ago I joined one of my favorite artists in the whole world, Natalia Lafourcade, at her concert at Carnegie Hall. A dream come true for me. So, I approached her with the idea and not only did she agree, she wrote completely new lyrics for the Spanish verses (that are not simply translations of the previous English version). Beautiful. Another dream comes true! Enjoy.

✨September is going to be amazing with these shows of the even more amazing Mexican Institute of Sound!

✨Come and dance:
03.09 De Roma, Antwerpen

Every four years, the World Cup has one sound. 🔊

In 2026, it has sixteen. 🎼

FIFA has introduced Host City Sonic IDs, inviting local producers across North America to reinterpret the official theme through their city’s identity.

This is sonic branding in action. Original compositions that turn sound into identity with lasting recognition.

💥💥Mexican Institute of Sound and Meridian Brothers join forces on 𝙍𝙪𝙞𝙙𝙤 𝙏𝙤𝙫𝙖𝙧, channeling the spirit of Mexican artist Rigo Tovar, who revolutionized Mexican cumbia by mixing tropical rhythms with rock, pop, and early synthesizers. The album is a playful, synth-soaked tribute to Mexico’s late-’70s/early-’80s tropical sound. Out on May 22💥💥

The first single, 𝘾𝙪𝙢𝙗𝙞𝙖 𝙛𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙨𝙞𝙖, is out now.

Cumbia fantasia starts with a classic Colombian cumbia groove, then hits harder thanks to Marco Antonio Sánchez of Costa Azul (the band behind Rigo Tovar). Built on swirling organ riffs, the song might be the album’s wildest track.
