| Has it really been six years now since this CD came out? It is still a staple in my playlist. Latin Travels was one of the compilations in the "Travel Series" that put Six Degree Records on the map. It awakened anyone who was paying attention to the tremendous possibilities of Latin fusion. This lively collection of tunes seems even more relevant today as the rest of the music world starts to catch up to where these artists were six years ago. Brazil is the country most represented on the CD but artists from around Latin America and even beyond are also here. What unites all the tracks is the musical exuberance that fills so much music from this region. There isn't a bad song here. Pick up this CD to experience some of the roots of the World Fusion revolution and expand your musical horizons. |

| Nu World DJ's and Music fans pick this up... This is an excellent Nu Latin music compilation from 6 degrees... I was introduced to a slew of Nu Latin music artists putting out nu beatz and soundz that mix traditional with nu - and most likely you will be too... - DJ Dakini-NYC |
More great sounds from 6 degrees

| I haven't met a CD from this label yet that wasn't outstanding, but this one blows me away! St Germain, Zuco 103, Bob Holroyd, each and every cut is worth the price. I'm anxiously awaiting the next "Latin Travels"...and "Arab Travels" and the "Traveler" series... and... |
One Heckuva CD

| I found "Latin Travels" at the music section of Borders one day, and, after listening to the very first song, "Royal Rumba", I was hooked. I remembered the first CD from Six Degrees Records that I bought("Suba: Sao Paulo Confessions"), and knew that this new CD was special. The music is absolutely stunning; the best of the sounds of Cuba, Africa, and Brazil. It's just paradise. As "Suba" is a soothing experience, "Latin Travels" is a blow-your-mind-away potpourri of danceable mixes. The banging of the drums, mixed with the all-too-familiar sounds of the digital age, electronica, can brighten up any party, living room, period of relaxation...you name it. This is a recommend for anyone who enjoys listening to international dance music with a twist and a beat. I've played this CD to my friends, and parents, and they, too, agree that "Latin Travels" is one heckuva CD. |
