Dave Santiago & Latin Affair: NY Salsa
€5.00Here's some pure, unadulterated, swingin' salsa gorda from the Bronx that will most definitely get them onto the dance floor. No romantica filler material, only capital 'S' Salsa decked out with with four trumpets, two trombones and terrific tres and cuatro accompaniment by Louis 'Carrasceao' Rodriguez. There are two generations at work here: Dave Santiago Sr. is one of the lead vocalists and plays guiro and maracas. His son, Dave Santiago Sr., plays flute. Latin Affair also boasts one of our favorite New York congueros, Papo Pepin. (review by Descarga)

Grupo Caribe: Un Congo me dio la Letra
€5.00Grupo Caribe is a swinging Mambo Salsa Dance Band! The band performs traditional Salsa dance music with pulsating percussive riffs, steady piano and bass montuno vamps, adorned by a rhythmic and melodic brass section, and full- bodied vocals, reminiscent of the 60's and 70's. Learn More -
Tito Gomez: Comenzando en Cero
€5.00The singer, backed by a high-energy band, sends his tenor voice ripping through the monas. This is power salsa, pitched high, with the mix favoring the upper register. It's dance floor magic, rocking and exciting. Gomez's voice has a tear to it, a cry that gives even his come-ons sadness. Luis Vargas is a guest on a batchata; the rest is non-stop old school salsa.

Cachao y su Ritmo Caliente: Original Egrem Studio Session
€5.00"The concept of the jam session (descarga) is nothing new to Cuban music. When good musicians get together they can always be called upon to be spontaneous and creative. This classic recording from 1957 showcases the father of modern tumbao (the repetitive bass lines in Cuban music), Cachao, with colleagues like 'Barrettico' on timbales and Richard Egües on flute who have become folk heroes, as well as others improvising over basic themes. This album is a great introduction to the vocabulary of Cuban music and some of its legends.

Raulin Rosendo: De aqui Pa'lla
€5.00One of my favorite salsa vocalists, RaulÃn Rosendo, is back with a new release that will not disappoint. This straight-ahead salsa project, with participating musicians such as pianist Isidro Infante, Luisito Quintero on percussion, Johnny Pacheco -- and many others -- on coro, this one is strictly for the dancers. There are lots of solid danceclub-ready tracks here: 'Vuela Mujer' and 'Tengo Envidia' are sure bets. And Mr. Rosendo's 7-1/2 minute 'Homenaje a Héctor Lavoe' will be sure to get those old-school dancers out in front. ('La Banda', 'Abuelita', 'Mi Gente', are but a few buttons that are pushed. A guaranteed applause) Ultimately, it's the cover track, 'De Aqui Pa'lla', a Sony Ovalle arrangement, that is the killer here. DJs make note: Play this track.
Raulin is on fire.
