Montez de durango, patrulla81, descripción.

Cultura Duranguense Tour 2023 presente en The Villa Event Venue con Montéz de Durango y Patrulla 81 este 13 de octubre.

El grupo Montéz de Durango, los más famosos promotores del pasito duranguense, un híbrido de quebradita y merengue orientado al ritmo inventado por mexicano - norteamericanos en Chicago, ciudad donde proviene esta agrupación. Encontraron el éxito tanto en Estados Unidos como en México desde el lanzamiento de su álbum debut “Rama seca” en 1997. Como grupo continuaron produciendo más discos y sencillos los cuales los han mantenido en el liderazgo de su género durante tantos años.

Patrulla 81 es una agrupación legendaria fundada en 1981 por Medina, quien gracias a su espíritu de lucha y perseverancia logró consolidar su sueño. Los intérpretes alcanzaron el éxito gracias al movimiento de la música duranguense en la década del 2000. Temas como “Eres Divina”, “Cómo Pude Enamorarme De Ti”, “Te Quiero Mucho” y “Cuando Regreses” llegaron a los primeros lugares de popularidad en México y Estados Unidos. Ahora la historia de Patrulla 81 comienza a escribir nuevas páginas con el tema “Me Llamas”, punta de lanza para un disco homenaje que el hijo menor de José Ángel Medina ofrecerá de corazón.

Can TikTok Bring Back This Forgotten Mexican Genre?

• By Tomás Mier

Comedian El Es Fede couldn’t figure out how to make his stand-up routines work on TikTok. Sometimes, he’d post silly storytime-style videos or he’d play with viral sounds, getting a couple thousand views. But nothing ever took off like he wished it would.

Then, in January, he decided to try something completely different. He created a hilarious sketch imagining what happened when the popular duranguense act Alacranes Músical made their hit “Por Tu Amor” in the early 2000s. He played every role himself: the singer (in a zebra shirt and cowboy hat), the saxophonist (using a sugar cane), the producer (“who’s feeling it”), and the unlikely star: the drummer “el alacrán,” whose solo on the song reminded Fede of something you’d expect from Metallica.

“Duranguense needs to become trendy again,” read one comment with over 20,000 likes. “It’s something we all need.”

“Make Duranguense Great Again,” read many others.

It seems to be working, and it’s not just Fede’s TikTok. Dozens of videos are slowly bringing duranguense back to the forefront — and duranguense bands of the past are jumping on the wave and making the most of it, headlining tours and taking the TikTok game into their own hands.

From there, other groups started forming around Chicago. The style slowly trickled its way into the Mexican American mainstream, thanks to its distinct sound featuring melodica, synth, and sax. It wasn’t until 2002, with Montez’s song “Pasito Duranguense,” or the Durango Step, that the genre got its name. Duranguense also spawned its own peculiar, shoulder-swaying dance form, and fashion style, distinguished by sombreros with brims curved up like hardshell tacos, and ultra-pointy cowboy boots.

“I remember that I went to record stores in Chicago at the time and I heard it everywhere,’” says Pepe Garza, a music expert and TV host. He was one of the first radio programmers to play the genre outside of Chicago. “That’s when I said ‘This is something quite special, it’s bound to happen.’”

“No one will ever know exactly how it happened. We have a theory that there was a Puerto Rican who went [to El Alamo] with a Mexican girl, so they mixed merengue with norteña dance moves, and we started imitating that,” says José Luis Terrazas, Jr., Montez’s animador, or hypeman. “Next thing you know, it was like the coronavirus. It spread in just the salón, then the city. No one knows how it happened.”

Duranguense dominated the regional Mexican space for several years. Acts won Latin Grammys three consecutive years in the early 2000s, and even Gloria Trevi dabbled in duranguense, joining Horoscopos on a recreation of “Cinco Minutos .” K-Paz de la Sierra’s “ No La Supiste Querer ” played on screens across Mexico and the U.S. every weekday as the theme song of novela Al Diablo Con Los Guapos .

Despite the novelty and success of duranguense , Garza says other acts in regional Mexican music didn’t “take the genre seriously” because of its electronic sounds (he thinks música mexicana listeners prefer more folkloric, acoustic sounds over keyboards and synthesizers), and how silly pasito duranguense looked since it could be danced without a partner.

“Duranguense just didn’t age well,” he says.

The genre slowly started to get fewer plays on the radio and reduced TV bookings, something Garza blames on both the departure of vocalist Alfredo Ramírez from Montez, following a legal dispute with his original bandmates, and later, the murder of Sergio Gomez , who fronted K-Paz, in December 2007. 

The guys of Montez think duranguense fizzled out because too many bands tried to tap into the style at once. “When you saturate the genre you cannot all be at the top the whole time,” says José Luis. “Eventually everything that goes up comes down. There were just too many bands.

NEARLY 20 YEARS later though, the guys of Montez, and several other groups, are hoping the genre can become as big as it once was. While some groups like Horoscopos de Durango have separated, many continue to tour nightclubs across the country and are harnessing the virality of the sound on TikTok by promoting their shows, personalities, and new music through the apps.

Early in the pandemic, Montez added a twist to the Flip the Switch challenge made viral by Drake and Quavo’s song. Instead of users switching outfits, TikTokers would come onscreen wearing duranguense-style clothes to the tune of “Pasito Duranguense.” Around that time, the group says they saw a 40 percent increase in their following count. (They now have nearly 300,000 followers on TikTok.) According to Spotify data, the band’s streaming numbers have also increased by 220 percent since 2020.

“When Myspace came out, we wanted to have the coolest page so I remember I had to freaking code,” says Daniel, the group’s drummer. “When TikTok came around during Covid lockdowns, it was only natural… the creator juice started flowing.”

Since then, the genre has had numerous viral moments online: Soccer team Chivas de Guadalajara had its players walk into the locker room to K-Paz’s “Jambalaya,” racking in nearly 300,000 likes in January;  Mexican short film No Me Digas Wey used Alacranes Músical’s  “Por Tu Amor” during a pivotal scene that’s been played over 2.5 million times, and just last month Mazizo Musical went viral for a duranguense cover of Harry Styles’ “As It Was.”

With the “mini-boom,” as Jose Luis calls it, the guys of Montez thought it would be the ideal time to take some duranguense acts on the road.

“Back in the day when the genre was at the top, it was very difficult to gather such big names in a single event, because there was no need to,” Daniel says. But in 2022, for Durango Fest, Montez recruited Patrulla 81, the old-school group known for their cop-themed attire, the rockier Alacranes Musical, and the remaining members of K-Paz de la Sierra for the very first time.

Over the next two years, the groups hosted 32 shows. They sold nearly 70,000 tickets across the U.S., celebrating the groups’ legacies, even if some of the original members of K-Paz and Patrulla 81 are no longer alive. (Along with Gomez’s tragic 2007 death, Patrulla frontman José Angel Medina died of Covid in 2020. His son Alejandro Medina now fronts the band.)

“It was an immediate success,” says José Luis. “I was very surprised to see a lot of youngsters. I was able to see three generations. It was the whole family. I think nostalgia sells because recordar es vivir ,” to reminisce is to relive.

The removal of Universal’s music from TikTok has also has also had an effect on duranguense acts like Montez and Horóscopos, but José Luis says he’s more upset about the prevalence of “pirated” versions of their songs on the app.

Brian Kaoz, a TikTok influencer and dancer based in El Paso, has attended a handful of Durango Fest shows near his hometown. In 2023, Kaoz built a following of more than 150,000 people, simply by posting videos of himself dancing to the genre. Now, he’s often invited and paid by groups to post videos of himself dancing at their events.  “I love the rhythm of the music. It makes you want to move,” he says. “One of my goals when I post duranguense videos is to help it come back.”

Like Montez, El Trono de México — the band behind original hits “Te Ves Fatal” and “Almas Gemelas” — has also seen a growth in their ticket sales, thanks to social media. “When I get up on stage I’m always looking into the audience,” says frontman Lalo Ávila. “I’m very happy to see that there are people of all ages attending the show, from kids, teenagers, even viejitos . That’s when you realize we are alive.”

Over the last two years, El Trono assembled a management team of five people to run the group’s social media, tapping into trends, collaborating with influencers such as viral cumbia dancer Medio Metro, and replying to older fans’ comments on Facebook. It’s that direct engagement that Lalo says has carried them.

One of their TikTok videos followed the popular concept of asking strangers what music they’re listening to. In the video, a man wearing a duranguense hat and shades shares that he’s playing the group’s “Te Ves Fatal.” The clip has nearly 10 million views, in part because of the interviewee’s duranguense attire and unexpected song choice. In two years, the group has built a following of 1 million people on TikTok, more than half of whom are under 24 years old, according to data provided by the band to Rolling Stone .

El Trono de México is currently working on its first releases since 2022. Meanwhile, Montez de Durango dropped an album of cumbia covers titled Puras Pa’ Bailar, Vol. II on Feb. 9, and plan to release their first album of duranguense songs this year, their first original LP in five years. 

'I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT': Trump Is Big Mad That Star Endorsed Harris

Cher ends conservatorship battle with son elijah blue allman, threats against haitians in ohio heighten as trump claims ignorance, jane's addiction concert ends abruptly after perry farrell punches dave navarro onstage.

He suggests that groups like Montez and Trono should consider “collaborations with artists in the spotlight,” such as Grupo Frontera, which helped revitalize norteño cumbias in the last year. Other artists such as The Nice Life’s Estevie , have combined cumbia with futuristic pop sounds. The singer even teased a pop- tribalero mix on Instagram recently.

Perhaps it’ll take tapping into the nostalgic sound of duranguense, but with fresh lyricism, Garza says. The guys of Montez are open to it. “I feel like hay Montez pa’ rato ,” says José Luis. “Montez is here to stay. You gotta keep adding to the legacy because, in a blink of an eye, you disappear.”
