Platinum Samples Real Latin MIDI Groove Library

Several times I heard other nations refer to Brazil, saying the expression 'Cha-Cha-Cha' , but, 'Cha-Cha-Cha, Mambo and Montuno' have always been Cuba.
Calypso is Caribbean,.
Merengue is from Dominican Republic.
Bolero there are Spanish and Cuban forms, such word comes from Andaluz from Europe of the eighteenth century , is known that was the name of the hat of Andalusian dancer.
The influence of this repetivive bolero Spanish dance, influenced the French composer 'Maurice Ravel to write a work based on the repetition of ideas.

This view on others made 'John Emrich' build a very unique style of Latin music, his own design, he is a great researcher of the subject and try to show their skills and make even more difficult than it has for decades, indeed each Latin percussionist plays differently on the same rhythmic gene. Specially between one drummer to another the differences shouts a lot.

It is obvious that in just a '19 Mb' a MIDI project for Latin music, not fit all the rhythms, even if they were of only one pattern and another one for Fill-in, need many Megabytes for such a feat.

Now, I´m working in a big company of Electronic Organs, such a hell, it must have all kinds of Latin beats already created in the history, included the pop ones, I'm sure it represents 45% of all rhythms of the entire globe, because their genres and styles variation from these genres, are very rich and different from each other.

I remember Spyro-Gyra which is practically one of the few successful bands of the Berklee School of Boston, which is treated as a school for Latin Americans, in short, Spyro-Gyra has a Latin rhythm section incredibly well made and with the own band style characteristics, despite of just using Latin rhythms as they are, that American vision made to do something brand new and well done to the Latin sound, when the world heard their first album, was a gift to the modern accurate ears. But, if you learn from Berklee methods for brass arranging, you'll be, perhaps, accused of plagiarism, because their methods have mathematical formulas that generate the same results.

'John Emrich' is fascinating, gives to be used in hundreds of works, obvious that in this package were forgotten hundreds of rhythms, Brazil and Cuba are the richest countries in rhythms of the whole history of mankind, the extraordinary French singer of Armenian origin 'Charles Aznavour ' always said that European popular music of the twentieth century has been done based on all Latin rhythms. And of course, in my opinion, the afro-american music. blues and Jazz.
