Hey, what else are you gonna do on a Tuesday right? Five bucks gets you in the door and Keysters has a crazy two-for-one special going from 10pm to midnight on anything you want to drink!!
You also get a complimentary dance lesson, provided by Salsa Iowa and of course, stick around for some of the best Latin music you are going to get in Des Moines.
In our last blog, I mentioned Anthony Cruz’ “Empece a Llorar” as one the recent chart-topping salsa songs out now. However, Anthony has been around salsa for a very long time now and has some great classics as well. Starting back in 1990, he released “Algo Nuevo” with hits like “No Le Temas A El” and “Si Pudiera” and following it up with the less populat album “Para Ti” which had the classic “Dile a El”. More recently in 2002 he released probably the best album of his career in “Un Nuevo Amanacer” which contained the super-hits “Me Tienes Loco”, “Que Bombon”, “Bla, Bla, Bla” and the Salsa Iowa anthem “Ven”. (more…)
Ok, for all you Salsa-junkies out there…I figured I put together a little list of some of the songs that either I think are hot right now or have had tons of people ask me to play for them. Here they are in random order…
So, these should keep you busy for a little while… I hope you enjoy… and don’t forget, if you like these songs, you will hear them and many more great ones at Latin Rhythmz events at Keysters and the Hotel Fort Des Moines!

These are probably the two hottest bachata groups out there right now. I wanted to see what you guys had to say about ‘em. I have Aventura first with Xtreme as a close second.
Aventura has been around longer though they started as young teens. Through the years and album releases, their sound has really matured although their content has always been quite “grown up”. A lot of their hits have dealt with social and personal issues…hits like “Hermanita”, which is about a sister who is in an abusive relationship…to most recently, “Los Infieles” or The Unfaithful, well you can take a guess what that one is about. Musically, however, they have done a complete 180. Starting with a more conventional, equally as good style as in “Cuando Volveras” (When Will You Return) to a much more R&B sound in their most recent hit “Mi Corazoncito” (My Little Heart). (more…)
