This will be a temporary finale of sorts as I need to focus on health and family while managing the demands of my job... But Episode 55 could be interesting, especially if you are into contemporary salsa...

I feature songs of the past five years which do not seem well-known but are gems for the dance floor. Some recent releases are included, too. The main highlight is the world debut of Yacel Sagarra's new single, which launches on September 5.

Catch Ep55 "Gems" via World Salsa Radio on Thursday Aug 14 21:00 -- broadcasting from near Tokyo, Japan.

Yacel Sagarra y Rubim de Toledo crean un discurso musical con el Son Cubano Tradicional como base principal, bebiendo, además, de ritmos como la Nueva Trova y sonoridades mas urbanas, recurriendo al contagioso sonido del sintetizador.
