Aventura
WE SAY
This is one of those magical tracks that manages to combine a delicious, fresh sound and rhythm (thanks to the influence of bachata, which is the Dominican Republic's hip hop), a great song, and wonderful production. The story began in South America and they've now sold a million albums throughout the Americas, essentially releasing it themselves. This track was then licensed by leading labels across Europe and it has been a smash just about everywhere including 16 weeks at no 1 in Italy, no 1 in France where the album has also been no 1, no 1 in Belgium, no 1 in Germany (with a cover version also in the top 5) and no 1 on pan-European sales. We first featured this months ago and we feature it again now because, incredibly, it's still available for the UK.
