SONG OF THE MONTH: “Sandunguera” - Los Van Van

“Sandunguera,” also known as “Por encima del nivel,” is one of Los Van Van’s best-loved dance tracks from the 1980s. Its groove has the layered, rolling energy that makes songo so satisfying to dance to.

Listen for the conversation between bass, piano and percussion rather than chasing every beat. Let the rhythm settle into your body, keep your steps grounded and give the music room to breathe. It is a wonderful track for practising sabor, musicality and relaxed Cuban movement.
