Mexican Institute of Sound, the brainchild of Camilo Lara, creates irresistible beats for the global dance floor. At home in Mexico City, Sao Paulo, Lagos, Mumbai, or New York, Camilo's music can be heard in any of the new capitals of world culture. His live shows can only be described as punk performances that bring down the house every single time. This ethos has taken him around the globe, performing in every single continent.
His work has landed him 1 Grammy and 4 Latin Grammy nominations, and he has produced artists ranging from Los Angeles Azules (scoring the best selling Mexican album of the last 25 years, 8 times diamond-certified sales), Lila Downs, Norah Jones, and Band of Horses. He has remixed Beck, the Beastie Boys, Interpol, Run the Jewels among others.
Camilo Lara was the musical consultant for Pixar’s Coco (where he even had a cameo!), and his music has been featured
in Narcos, Breaking Bad, Y tu mamá también, Californication, Ugly Betty, to name a few.
