Salsa y Sol does not sell music. However at the request of many of you, we have listed here some of the more popular songs that we believe can help you enjoy and practice dancing Salsa. Listen to Salsa music free on your computer on the 8Tracks website (more details and link below) or simply search and download from an online music store. Enjoy!
Sharing compilations online - "8Tracks"
http://www.8tracks.com gives you a way to create your Salsa and other music compilations free and legally.
The artists and recording labels are paid every time someone listens to a track. You can also create your own compilations (mixes) and upload your own music if you don't find it on their database.
There are certain rules that allow this to happen, such as limiting the same artist to two tracks per compilation, and you are not able to see the individual songs before starting to play them. They also play in a different order every time, and you can only skip a certain number within an hour.

Here are some compilations we've put up for you - with some of the songs we have listed down below as well as many others. For your convenience we are listing the content of each compilation here, since as we have mentioned you won't see the contents on the 8Track website. These lists are not in the order of playback, as already mentioned. Enjoy!
