Catchy spanish music to play during my presentation?

Question

I'm doing a presentation on Panama for my spanish class, and I was wondering if anyone could reccomend any upbeat spanish music to play in the background? It'd be preferable if there were no lyrics, as I'll be talking over it, but either way is fine really. I'm sorry, I tried searching on my own, but I just couldn't seem to find anything right. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

It's always nice to use authentic music if you are going to present about a particular region.  Here's a neat site with "royalty free"  music, though there is a charge to download the song, unfortunately. It is music from Panama and very up beat.  If you can't afford to pay for a down load, at least it might lead you to something similar.

Answer 2

See if you can find an instrumental and upbeat version of Cielito Lindo.  That might be pretty good.

Answer 3

Bueno Vista Social Club

Upbeat //No lyrics

Answer 4

Dulce Locura by Oreja de Vangogh Rompe el mar by Quinta Estacion is good or Cancion de Mariachi is also good. Use something modern... not that old c**p you see in 100 year old westerns.

Answer 5

Try searching on limewire, search for "Pasarela" by Dalmata. But, when you do the search also type in "karaoke" to see if the song shows up without the lyrics. The song is very popular where i live right now and has a nice beat.

Or, you can always go with anything Jerry Rivera, or since its Panama search for any song by "El General", whom many consider the father of Spanish Rap (and Reggaeton).
