Sounds, dance and blood into its vein. Ricky Martin and Shakira ain´t the unique music coming from Latinamerica. There´s an alternative, vanguardist and outstanding sound apart of "commercial pop-dance- salsa", as a result of the mixture between the latin lounge rythms and rocky guitars energy surrounded with stickier pop melodies. So the foreign rock- punk and modern electronic machines influences are taking shapes to the fresh-contemporary sound of remarkables latin B-sides music creators.
