From Cuba to Mexico via ports like Veracruz and Yucatán, guaracha, son montuno and rumba crossed the Gulf, inspiring a new wave of sound. Radios, dance halls and Mexican cinema turned tropical rhythms into part of everyday life. Between the late ’50s and mid ’70s, Mexican Sonoras took that fire, added their own swing, and created a unique tumbao — brass blazing, congas rolling, voices full of sabor.

JAY & Tahl

Two dear friends, one heaping bag of mixed musical goodies. Londons' JAY, and Power Play Berlin's (via LA) Tahl take the controls to make you dance, yelp, laugh & cry. But one of those good cries. Strap in.
