Salsa
Popular salsa music is a genre of Latin American dance music that is characterized by a fast, syncopated rhythm and the use of improvisation.

There are many different styles of salsa, but all of them share certain features in common. Salsa music usually has a 4/4 time signature, and the lead melody is often played by horns or trumpets. The percussion instruments used in salsa include congas, timbales, and bongos, and the rhythm is often played on claves (a pair of small pieces of wood that are struck together).
Most salsa songs are based on a simple two-chord progression (often just I-IV or I-V), which makes them easy to dance to. The best salsa songs are those that make you want to get up and move your feet, and there are plenty of great ones to choose from. Here are ten of the best salsa songs from 2014:
