Mexican Institute of Sound and Meridian Brothers

The Mexican Institute of Sound is a celebration.

A tribute to the sounds that have shaped an entire country.

Camilo Lara’s sonic experiment arrived, and from the very first moment it was heard, it made an impact. Songs that felt fresh and catchy, yet carried the aura of a Mexico that had already faded—of cities, colors, people, flavors, and dances we never lived, but somehow feel as our own. The magic of a project like this lies in how it connects with that nostalgic part we all have.

As a key figure in Mexico’s cultural scene, Camilo Lara also uses the Mexican Institute of Sound to project a call for social justice. As he himself puts it: “The only democratic place on Earth right now is the dance floor. On a dance floor, you can be rich, poor, ugly, handsome, white, or Black—but if the music is good, it brings the community together.”
