n celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, here are 12 acts with Latin roots whose sounds run the gamut from pop to rap to mariachi. Some are likely new to your ears. Some might be familiar. They all deserve a listen.Brothers Manuel and Felix Lara comprise this duo, whose polished sound draws from disco, house and R&B. There's also a dark '80s edge to much of the music. Singles"Altas Horas" and"Control" are lush listens that set the stage for a forthcoming album.
Former La Original Banda El Limón singer Lorenzo Mendez is known for his Spanish-language music, including a new duet with Ninel Conde called"La Vida Es Pa' Gozarla." But the El Paso-raised singer, who recently competed on the"Asi Se Baila" dance competition, wants to record Michael Bublé-type tunes in English. Or at least Spanglish.
