This thread is frikin' great.
Keep in mind I'm a unilingual English-speaker who is still a bit of a n00b and who listens to a fair amount of conventional music, so I'm likely missing a lot in the stuff here—if I come off as a bit of an ignoramus, it's probably because I am.
This post is about stuff (I mostly at least) like in the first two pages of this thread.

1. Que Nada
nice but cut short
3. Maiô da Mulher Maravilha
Imagine Queen had a song like
Body Language but with the greatness of a
Bohemian Rhapsody: kinda like this song.
4. Jaloo - Odoiá (In Your Eyes)
more good electronica (some sung in English)
5. Pedra Preta
Makes me think of Sade, only faster.

1. Buscabulla - Frío feat. Helado Negro
Part of it sounds like a song I heard long ago but don't recall.
2. Mirando a Las Muchachas
Ditto: that riff reminds me of another song I currently can't name.
Still a good song.
Let's see ...,
lyrics
wp article
So it's kinda like Boards of Canada—at least in naming—Mexican Institute of Sound - Boards of Canada
3. 1977
This song is ahead of its time. When I first heard it (on a burned CD) I thought it would be something from the past 20 years, not over 40.
4. Paraguaya
again

1. Underwaterlove (Original Mix)
another good one, rostasi. Parts of it sounds a bit like Jean Michel Jarre and that
Marumari - Eno Test.
2. Bad$ista Ft. Lei Di DAi - Curtição 420
also good.

Yeah, that's psychedelic—mixed in with other stuff.

Great video! Pleasantly bizarre—also cute parody-of-sorts of the Doors.

2. Makiza - La rosa de los vientos
The riff sounds familiar.
(much better than Verve's video—no pushing or shoving)
The last three are good.
El Humo rocks well. (Kinda makes me think of Iggy Pop's
I want to be your dog, though better, IMO.)
