Clorofila (Jorge Verdín) is one of the pioneers of the Nortec (norteño-techno) musical style that originated in Tijuana, Mexico. The name Clorofila is now Verdín's stage name but originally it referred to a musical partnership between Verdín and Fritz Torres, with whom he also collaborated as a graphic designer. Clorofila first came to prominence as a member of a collaborative effort called the Nortec Collective, which included a number of acts. Starting in 1999, these artists took previous efforts to mix electronic and other modern sounds with norteño and banda ones, to consolidate and promote a style that spoke to the border experience in Tijuana. The success of this group led to two albums and a multi-national tour, but the collective broke up in 2007. Since then Clorofila has performed and cut two solo albums, which have had success in alternative venues. Verdín continues to work as a graphic designer in projects related to the music industry as well as a remixer for various artists such as Beck. Mochipet, Tremor, Matias Aguayo. ==Life== Jorge Verdín was born in Los Angeles, but grew up in Tijuana in the 1970s and 1980s at a time when the city was cultural not part of either Mexico or the United States, with much cultural interchange, even British influences in music such as punk.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=UCLS Design Media Arts )〕 He studied at the design program at San Diego City College and earned a bachelors in graphic design from the Art Center College of Design.〔 He currently resides in Pasadena, but still does work in Tijuana. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Clorofila (Jorge Verdín)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
