Various - Latin Freestyle: New York / Miami 1983-1992

Ace - XXQLP2102

Latin Freestyle was a dizzying, passionate, ultramodern music. It was the aural equivalent of a can of thirst-quenching Quatro or a Spanish Harlem dance-off, and it became the electronically constructed bridge between disco and house. Freestyle grew out of the electro sound of the early 80s, combined clean staccato rhythms with morse code synth hooks, and topped them off with emotive, usually female, frequently Latina vocals. There was plenty more going on besides: protohouse piano lines, Cuban percussion, high emotion and synth hooks to die for.
