Is BANDMIX doing enough to attract Latin Musicians to it's website? New York State the capital of Music can't be that far away.
Would a sub-site for Latin Jazz help?

Maybe they're all here illegally and want to keep a low profile. :)

Hey I like me some Latin Jazz. Cuban Salsa, Brazilian Samba, Caribbean counter rhythms with a full percussion section. Oh yeah! You might even find a song clip written by the great Tito Puente on my player.

I spent some time in Rio and throughout the Caribbean and had a ball with the local musicians there. Post some more music to your player so we know where you are coming from.

Nice track RG. Is that you back there on percussion?


Here is Tito with his signature tune playing to thousands at the Newport Jazz Festival:

Hey Van the Man is Irish and a lot of his music has Latin Jazz undertones. He even covered Palmieri

I'm not clear why Bandmix should do more? The place is wide open - you're free to start a Latin Jazz thread 3 times a day. You can hunt players from all over the place.
