Some reggaeton mp3s, by request.

A while ago, [livejournal.com profile] freakytigger and I discussed how an emergent genre's willingness to magpie up and incorporate well-known pop hooks into itself was probably a major sign of its quality and health. Reggaeton does this spectacularly well, as the mp3s below (sampling Corona, Snap and Deee-Lite respectively) demonstrate:

King Africa - El Ritmo Es Tu Danza
Aldo Ranks - Mueve Mami
Lorna - Papi Chulo...Te Traigo El Mmm

And just for fun, two of the biggest and best reggaeton hits which don't have novelty Eurotechno samples:

Daddy Yankee ft. Pitbull, NORE & Lil Jon - Gasolina (rmx)
Hector y Tito - Baile Morena

See, the thing with these 'hipster' genres is that they're not wilfully obscure or esoteric; they're just pop music, a few years ahead of the curve.
