Arctic Monkeys dancing shoes - latin mix from Rhythms del Mundo Cuba album...
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/...bum?playlistId=202049670&s=143444&i=202049796
for a sample...
I saw this album in FOPP, I read the track listing, and I was like "EHHH, these songs are NOT latin, what a stupid album!".
Hi Swannie, I thought the same and was very confuddled about it all but bought it anyway :lol: 'cos I'm a curious sort of bint (and it was for charity).
You know what? I actually quite enjoy it

At the very least there are a few really different (and good) cha cha's on there, my favorite being 'The Dark Of The Matinee' by Franz Ferdinand, sounds like it shouldn't work.........but it does!
The real surprise for me on the album is 'Still haven't found what I'm looking for' by Coco Freeman and U2, if anybody would have told me there was a salsa version of this song I'd have made them wash their mouth out with soap and sit on the naughty step :evil: But it really does work (in a strange 'what am I dancing to?' sort of way :shock

. I know there are people who are going to love it and people who are going to hate it but as long as everyone remembers this whole project is for a worthy cause hopefully those who hate it.......will hate it in silence or at least say ' it's not to my taste, but it is for charity'
These aren't the usual 'Berna Jam style' re-mixes, this album is The Buena Vista Social Club fusing with some really big names in the pop industry to create something which hopefully will appeal to a wide audience and help raise money for natural disaster relief and climate change awareness.
Please, nobody PM me to send this

If you think you may like it......dig deep and buy a legit copy
