Cuban rock/funk/party music. Young energy, lots of Latin heat, but this it NOT Ricky Ricardo music. It’s the fresh sound of today’s Cuba – influenced by the music of the past but very much part of the 21st century. Mostly up/midtempo & dancey, but a few romantic interludes as well. Great summer time party music. Deliciously hip and all worth a play, especially: 1. Mid/uptempo Cuban funk w/energetic vocals. A hot jam. 2. Relaxed midtempo w/fun vocals & a catchy sound. Picks up. 4. Uptempo dance w/good vocals and percussion. A bit funky. 6. Slow guitar into into cool midtempo rock track w/hint of jazz. 7. Horns & fast vocals in a dishy Rock en Espanol w/some funk. 9. Lazily sexy midtempo w/lots of interesting vocals. 10. Fast vocals, good guitars, a somewhat hyper rock track. 12. Dishy retro bossa hints – a smooth midtempo shimmy. Yum. 14. Solo jazz piano intro – at 1:36 perc/vox. Midtempo w/strings, picks up speed & energy. Very jazzy. | ||
