I hear you Matt, yes, they sound pretty good. When it comes to son montuno, bolero, and the so called "salsa" rhythms, altough being these all born in Cuba, the Puerto Rican musicians stay true to them. Also, the previously released latin rhythms sounds pretty good too. Yes I have a couple of Bossa tunes in which I switch from bossa to latin jazz usually at the "B" section or at the middle chorus a la Poncho Sanchez. Comes out pretty darn good.
On the note of Midi super tracks; I would also like to see some wind instruments like sax and trumpet at some point, that would be great.

Later

Music should be part of your life
