Best Upcoming Latin Albums of 2010
This time last year we were jamming out to albums like Hello Seahorse!’s Bestia, Juan Son’s Mermaid Sashimi, and Bomba Estereo’s Blow Up, a great mix to soundtrack the “put away the shorts and pull out the sweaters” time of year.
This year, though we’ve seen some excellent Latin releases already from the likes of Gepe, Klaus&Kinski, and Julieta Venegas, it’s about time to freshen things up on the old iPod. We love Audiovision as much as everybody else, but we’ve reached our play count limit and are ready for some new sounds.
So, we’ve rounded up our most anticipated fall and winter Latin album releases (13 in total!) with everything from accelerated tribal rhythms to effervescent electropop to keep you up to date and in tune.
