Two Chilled Grooves: Manu Chao & Nortec Collective

Nacional Records has been defining itself as the "latin alternative" music label. And, as I've heard from a friend who just visted Mexico, Manu Chao is a hot act.
Though French-born of parent's of Spanish origin his music has resonated with the latinos and Americans.

Chao broke into "chillout" circles after performing with downtempo favorite, Thievery Corporation, in a 2007 sellout performance in Columbia, MD. In addition to the free promo download below, you'll find a remix and DIY remix kit at: www.politikills.com.
