Catchy marimba-based instrumentals. The style of dance is thoughtfully included on the back so you’ll have an idea of tempo. Its slightly kitchy-touristy sound is actually quite charming. Very well played. Check out especially: 1. Happy, sunny. A good introduction to the music. 3. A warm and sweet bolero. 4. Sweetly toe-tapping w/a relaxed, unpretentious sound. 5. A carousel-type waltz. 7. Billed as “blues” actually a foxtrot. Midtempo & kinda dramatic. 9. Upbeat, nicely tripping and bright. 11. Bright, midtempo folk dance. 13. Upbeat corrido, very polka-esque. Happy & fun. 14. Midtempo w/a quirky edge. Almost cinematic. 18. Upbeat and lively w/a sunny day sound. 19. Another carousel waltz. Plinky-good. | ||
