Los Super Elegantes are a unique punk-mariachi-hip-pop group from Los Angeles (via Buenos Aires and Tijuana). Featured in Vogue, Interview, ArtForum and the Fader, Martiniano Lopez-Crozet and Milena Muzquiz mix original music with theatrical stage improvisations in amusing live performances, and their album "Channelizing Paradise" has been praised for its quirky, entertaining riffs, and they performed in 2004 as part of the Whitney Biennial in New York and in the Frieze Art Fair in London and in 2006 at Vive Latino in Mexico City and at Art Basel in Miami Beach. Los Super Elegantes have played with Beck, done a version of Nirvana's "Rape Me" in French, DJ'd throughout Europe and North and South America, and have received significant airplay on WFMU and KCRW, on which they played live in 2001. The band is currently working on new material.
