Editor's note

N'Klabe's salsa from Ponce, Puerto Rico

A long-running band that formed in 1996 and kept the traditional rhythms going.

For their classic sound, 'La Favorita' or 'Llegaste A Tiempo' work. The 'Pa'lante y Pa'trás' remix gives a fresher take.

They've been a steady presence in salsa since the late '90s, with songs like 'La Favorita' anchoring their live sets. Their sound sticks to the genre's core, even as members came and went. The more recent 'Pa'lante y Pa'trás' remix shows they're still finding new angles within that tradition.

They started in Ponce in 1996 and released their debut 'I Love Salsa' the next year. The lineup shifted over the decades, with congas player José Rivera leaving in 2005 and later replacements like Ubaldo Rodríguez passing away. They kept putting out albums like 'Eso Es N'Klabe' in 2002 and recording new tracks.
