Various Artists - Latin Groove Mix (2018)

Afro-Cuban Jazz is a combination of jazz improvising and rhythms from Cuba and Africa; it is also known as Latin jazz. However, the true birth of Afro-Cuban jazz can be traced to trumpeter-arranger Mario Bauza. Bauza introduced trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie to the masterful Cuban percussionist Chano Pozo and also persuaded Latin bandleader Machito to use jazz soloists. Of all the post-swing styles, Latin Jazz has been the most consistently popular and it is easy to see why. The emphasis on percussion and Cuban rhythms make the style quite danceable and accessible.

Forro is a type of popular music closely associated with the Brazilian working class. In addition to baiao, forro includes other dance styles from northeastern Brazil. Because of the prominence of the accordion and the influence of American blues, forro sounds a lot like American zydeco, another roots music style with strong ties to the working class.
