Editorial Review:
Ever since the release of Asian Travels in the year 2000, the Six Degrees "Travels" compilation series has been the benchmark for quality in a market glutted with imitators. With two volumes released of Asian and Arabian Travels as well as African and Latin Travels, the series has remained committed to exploring the incredible influence that music from various parts of the planet has had on the electronic and dance community.
The latest offering, Latin Travels 2 is once again, the sound of the past harmonizing with the future- the fusion of 21st century global dance culture with ancient traditions and deep roots. The music is a representation of the entire Afro-Latin Diaspora (the sounds of Africa, Cuba, the Caribbean and Brazil) in a modern context.
In keeping with its predecessor's tradition, Latin Travels 2 is chock full of exclusive tracks and remixes that have been recorded specially for this project. Highlights include, a brand new reggeaton remix of Los Mococsos' track "Bandolera", Tim "Love" Lee's funky re-work of a classic 70's track from Brazilian soul band, Banda Uniao Black, Bombay Dub Orchestra's irresistible, "Montuno Skank" and hot, hip hop up and comers, the Rondo Brothers remix of a Beny More Latin classic.

Rating:  - The coolest of today's latin dance music
This compilation is rocking from the very start ("Montuno Skank" is absolutely lovely latin dub groover from forthcoming world-fusion superstars Bombay Dub Orchestra, ready to release their fully orchestrated electronic dub works early 2006) till only silence remains. This is extremely satifying mix of about everything that's cool, sexy and danceable at the moment, Hip Hop, Electronica, Drum 'n Bass, Reggaeton, Funk, Afro, Latin, House, Disco, and a stellar cast of talented and experienced musicians, ...
