Our Universe in sound divided into Dinner, Drinks, Dancing, Daybreak and Drive.

From Brazilian samba to Dominican bachata, Latin America has been the birthplace of some of the world's most inventive and enduring musical styles.

Diverse musical styles from across Latin America

Latin America

Music of mid-'60s African-American origin that reinvented the rhythms of soul, jazz and rhythm and blues.

Mid-'60s blend of soul, jazz and rhythm and blues.

Funk & Soul

Funk offers a powerful blend of soulful vocals, jazz swing and mid-20th century counter-cultural energy – and is the irresistibly rhythmic forerunner of disco. 

Rhythmically revolutionary disco forerunner

Funk

Where modern club culture began. Originally evolving from 1960s soul, Motown, funk and salsa, disco blends 4/4 beats, funky basslines and lush instrumentation.

Disco

Developed in Brazil in the late 1950s, bossa nova ('new wave') fuses jazz and samba, and has become hugely influential around the world. 

Bossa Nova

Rare groove is less a genre than a category for crate-diggers, encompassing hard-to-find gems hidden deep in the genres of disco, funk, jazz, soul and rhythm and blues.
