Anyway I can make my favorite songs into salsa musics?

[Dalaran1991]

I've been learning for a while and am slowly getting addicted to salsa ! Though I would love it much more if I can dance to some of my favorite songs, which happen to not be salsa music.

So, for example, Modern Talking's No face no name no number is a great and very dynamic song.

Anyway I can find remix versions of these songs into salsa music? I try to google them but no luck.

Thanks everyone!

there have been numerous attempts at forcing salsa rhythms and pop songs together.

i believe there is a compilation called "rhythms del mundo" which does this

IMO this kind of project seldom works if it ever does. to me it just sounds like a salsa rhythm 'copy & pasted' onto a ballad.
However... "para los gustos hay colores"... (each to their own)

while you are at it though, i would recommend buying a real salsa compilation such as "beginners guide to salsa" volume one and two

who knows you might end up liking salsa music
