Why sensual bachata is popular

With the passage of time, music has undergone such a big transformation that it looks no longer as what it was a few decades ago. Just as new musical genres with very modern rhythms have emerged lately, the old ones have continuously adapted to consumers’ changing tastes of this era. Such is the case of bachata, which has progressively succumbing to the sensual fashion that has spread to a good part of current genres. 

Nowadays sensual bachata has gone on to become one of the favorite musical styles for both young and not so young. The best proof of this is that each day there are more radio stations and nightclubs that include in their repertory this music to appeal to the public who support it. 

What has made sensual bachata become so famous? 

This genre from the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico has always stood out for its waste of romanticism and sensuality, which has made it very famous in the rest of the world. One of the most important characteristics of bachata is the deep connection that should exist between the members of the dance couple in order to infect the audience with magnificent energy and an intimacy out of this world. 

Sensual bachata has become one of the favorite variants for most people, which has expanded enormously thanks to a large number of dancers who have dedicated themselves to seeking new horizons and setting aside traditional styles from previous years. This style has had plenty of promoters, which was the reason it has become so popular in a pretty quick period of time. 

The role of women in sensual bachata 

Without any doubt, women have acquired a leading role in bachata in recent years as it is the female part of the dance that performs the most sensual movements of the choreography. On top of this, there are a more or less intense touch of eroticism and a very vivid interpretation of the music to give the result that the dancers are looking for. After professional dancers started adding these ingredients to their choreographies, there was the emergence of a set of rhythms that reinvented itself and won the support of the public. 

One of the reasons why sensual bachata has gained so much popularity lately is the role played by women during the dance. 

This genre shows us a woman who should be able to take advantage of all her femininity and be very sure of herself at all times. Every part of her body must move to the rhythm of the music without neglecting the load of eroticism needed at any time. 

The best of all this is that every day there are more and more women who want to bring out this sensual side that all women have, so they choose to enroll in dance classes where they are taught to dance these types of rhythms in a professional manner or not so much. A large part of these classes is aligned toward learning delicate body movements, cadence, and much more.

“SALSA IT”

Did you know the origin of the DJ…

The 9th of March is World DJ Day, thanks to the initiative of the ‘Worl DJ Fund’ and the NGO ‘Nordoff Robbins Music Therapy’. But, do you really know the history of these music mixing artists?

For 16 years this day has been celebrated as a tribute to this sector of music that is so in vogue in our time, which take advantage of his ‘birthday’ to donate what they charge these days to charitable causes.

The initiative was carried out in 2002 by the ‘Worl DJ Fund’ and the NGO ‘Nordoff Robbins Music Therapy’, and has been active for over a decade. But the history of the DJs has a few more years.

For those who still do not know what is behind the acronym DJ, a ‘disc jockey’ is a musician who creates, selects and plays before an audience music of his own or composed by other artists. There are several types, including radio and club DJs.

The first DJ in history

It was Ron Diggins, a British radio engineer who in 1947 built the famous Diggola, considered the first “mixing table” in the history of music. This home-made portable table included two turntables, lights, microphones, an amplifier and a dozen speakers. And it was made on a coffin wood base.

If we mention Ron Diggins, many of us won’t know who I’m talking about, because this British and radio engineer is considered the first DJ in history.

Many others before Diggins moved in with their records and equipment to cheer on the soldiers but he was the creator of “La Digolla”.

He himself built the first mixer in 1945, although it wasn’t until 1947 that the invention became official.

It was a portable table made of wood, worthy of any party room, it included two plates, lights, microphones, an amplifier and a dozen speakers.

As a curiosity, the wood with which Diggins made the first mixing table in history was casket wood.

Six weeks was the time it took the engineer to build the famous portable table.

Ron Diggins’ dream was to travel all over the UK with his van and “La Digolla”, so he could play his favorite songs.

This pioneer during his professional career was severely criticized by countless musicians who did not approve that the DJ would mix songs without their consent.

Diggins retired in 1995 after playing at 20,000 parties.

In his hard beginnings, traveling kilometers and full of criticism, he would never imagine what he had done, he had invented a profession. A job that would be paid for, more than he could have thought.

The first Disc Jockey in history, died at the age of 90 and in his long life he made 6 “Diggiolas” Some of them were auctioned off at more than $40,000.

“I haven’t invented anything, I just put the same things to a different use, that’s all.

On his 90th birthday, the first disc jockey confessed that, when he started to tour cities and towns with his invention, he received hundreds of criticisms from musicians who did not approve of him mixing their songs without their consent. Diggins retired in 1995 after playing at 20,000 parties.

The big DJ explosion

In the 60s and 70s, with the expansion of the discotheques in Europe and the USA, the creation of a specific technology for this figure of the music began, like the mixer ‘CMA-10-2DL mixer’. It was also the time of the birth of ‘hip-hop’ and ‘disco’ music.

In the 80’s we get the first big names, considered cult DJs, as Larry Levan who played in the ‘Paradise Garage’ in New York, or Frankie Knuckles, with its mixtures of ‘disco’ and ‘synth pop’ led to music ‘house’ in the ‘Warehouse Club’ in Chicago. At the same time, in Detroit, techno was born.

They were years of great impact for the DJs, who saw the birth of their first magazine specifically for professionals, the ‘DJ Times’ in 1988 and held for the first time an exclusive event for DJs of electronic music dance, the ‘Winter Music Conference’ in 85 in Florida.

The DJs of the digital era

The arrival of the ‘rave’ movement in the 90s radically changed the image of DJs and these artists began to project themselves as superstars or ‘Diva DJs’ who establish particular sounds and brands.

These new ‘DJs’ have arrived to our days, taking advantage of the technological innovations of the digital era, and there we have famous names such as the French David Guetta, Armin Van Buuren, Tiesto or Bob Sinclar, who travel the world with their mixes.
