Original soundtrack to the 2018 motion picture ‘Shine’, which mines the tremendous Fania catalogue featuring songs from Willie Colon, Tito Puente, Eddie Palmieri and the Fania All-Stars. The vision of the film is to showcase the culture and tradition within the Nuyorican community with Salsa song and street dance as a way of life.
Salsa was born on the streets of Spanish Harlem before transcending to a global audience and the Fania label was the catalyst. The dance defines the film’s central characters and echoes the story plot lines of seduction and love to anger and betrayal.
