Tito Puente is a Puerto Rican-American Latin bandleader, jazz, salsa and mambo musician. His recording career spans 1953 through the late 90’s. In 1992 the film “Mambo Kings” brought his music back to the clubs and in a house fusion a few of his classic Mambo numbers were reborn for a new audience. “Para Los Rumberos” ("For the rumba dancers" or "For the partygoers") is from his 1972 album by the same name - the piece was also recorded by Santana. This fierce number is translated with a house keyboard touch and deep bass which makes the track alive once again. It is one of the great examples of why this man is called “The King of Latin Music”.
I have taken the 1992 12” remix of “Para Los Rumberos” from Masters At Work and their incredible talents on this dance overhaul into a ReStructure Mix to give Tito Puente his spotlight once again!
