Replay Episode 31 using the link at the bottom of this page: Twenty-six songs (2:05:14).
In this session I pick up where I left off in the last show, playing more salsa gems released in 2023. It turns out that with so much good material and several lesser-known artists worthy of recognition, a selection of just twenty-five tracks to represent the year is simply not enough. So I revisit my source playlist on Spotify and play outtakes, missed tracks, and even a few newly discovered ones, such as material released late in the year. That means another 25 "best" salsa songs of 2023! See the pre-show post for more context.
The choice of tracks is selected from DJ Rem's Spotify playlist Contemporary Salsa (2023 Releases) -- which I also contributed to -- totaling over 600 songs.
Once again, it was not easy selecting 25 tracks from such a colossal number, but I managed to include a range of artists, both well-known and lesser-known ones. These tracks resonate with me and I believe deserve some recognition; however, I emphasize that my selection is merely personal and not intended as authoritative.
Full attribution is given on the show. The track list is below in order of play (not ranking).
