We add a little more heat to a sultry summer day with some salsa caliente y picante – from classic to contemporary, bugalú to son montuno, danzón, cha-cha-cha, rumba, timba y mucho más. So throw off your shoes (and your clothes, if you must) and join us!

"Music for the Masses" invites you on an excursion of sound and rhythm. Discover the music of established and emerging artists, both signed and unsigned, on the international music scene. For the avid globe-hopper and armchair traveler alike. You might want to pack a map and a sandwich.
