Dark, Latin Groove (or DLG) is just that -- an exciting music based on Latin salsa but with jiggers of bass-driven reggae, hip-hop and the more sampladelic side of house to spice the blend. The group came together in New York's Latin club scene around the aegis of producer <a href="spotify:artist:4Ht1HigABvctq7wW4D3jAC">Sergio George</a>; he discovered vocalists <a href="spotify:artist:6fhCq41xOJnMGIvFd13Oft">Huey Dunbar</a> and James "Da Barba" de Jesus -- the former a smooth soul crooner, the latter a ragga-influenced rapper who had backed up <a href="spotify:artist:4vOycwLXdkMMzpZW04VW5m">Tito Nieves</a> as well as Sistah Souljah -- and set them up as DLG.
Signed to Sergio's Sir George Records, DLG premiered in April 1996 with Dark, Latin Groove, an exhilarating LP with terrific playing from <a href="spotify:artist:2BWfZGPtsjRlRp7JTDqI45">George</a> himself on keyboards, Marc Quiñones on percussion and Ruben Rodriguez on bass, among others. Sophomore effort Swing On appeared in August 1997. ~ John Bush, Rovi
