Info: El Sentimiento Del Barrio is a celebration of real salsa culture, a tribute to salsa, its roots and its people. Our Salsa Vinyl Open Decks bring collectors and DJs together to spin classic records the way it was meant to be heard, pure vinyl, raw sound and the true spirit of the barrio on the dance floor.

Info: Four vinyl DJs go head-to-head in a high-energy sound clash dedicated entirely to the music of Willie Colón. For one full hour, the DJs will play back-to-back, selecting one Willie Colón track at a time before passing control to the next DJ. Every round switches after each song, creating a continuous rotation that keeps the energy unpredictable and intense.
