Meme Del Real

Emmanuel “Meme” del Real Díaz (born March 22, 1969 in Naucalpan, State of Mexico) rose to prominence as the keyboardist, guitarist, vocalist, and producer of the legendary alternative rock band Café Tacvba, which he joined in 1989. He contributed key songwriting and instrumentation to classics like “Eres,” “La Ingrata,” “Pez,” and “Aviéntame,” while also managing sampling and rhythmic elements. Alongside his band duties, Meme co-founded electronic collective Noiselab as “DJ Angustias” and produced for notable acts including Julieta Venegas, Natalia Lafourcade, Ely Guerra, Los Bunkers, Austin TV, Pepe Aguilar, Los Tres, and contributed music to film scores. In early 2025, he boldly embarked on a solo career under HYBE Latin America's Docemil Music, releasing his debut single “Princesa,” a lush, genre-blending soulful ballad evolving into synth-pop, produced with Gustavo Santaolalla and acclaimed by outlets like KCRW. He followed up in March 2025 with “Tumbos,” a bachata/bolero hybrid infused with electronic rhythm, marking a stylistic shift and showcasing new facets of his artistry.
