Jose Caridad Hernandez , better known as “Perico”, is a sonero/percussionist/composer/songwriter who creates “organic cuban music.” Born in Pinar del Rio, Cuba, Perico is the second to the youngest of twelve siblings and the only one who became a musician. Perico began his musical training as a young boy in Havana. He watched the street rumberos creating amazing rhythms on the “tumbadoras” (congas), and after watching Patato Valdez play congas on a TV show, Perico decided that’s what he wanted to do. Perico gradually learned from the “rumberos” and at age 14 became the conguero for a neighborhood group, Conjunto Monte Carlo. He was eventually recruited to play with the popular Conjunto Casino. Regarding his nickname Perico, he tells the story that as a kid he walked around the neighborhood with an elderly man called “Perico.” Pretty soon the neighbors started saying “Here come Perico y Periquito.” Perico has said “Maybe the name was meant to be because I’m now a sonero and...
Dj Nastypants - Groove Odyssey '74 Funk/Electronica, Dance Texas, United States Overall Impression: Chock full of groove and generously slathered with style, DJ Nastypant's fantastical funk and soul-injected electro track "Groove Odyssey '74" is the type of track you simply cannot help moving to, and if a track can accomplish such a feat then it is most certainly doing something very right indeed.

This mesmerizing track, a masterful fusion of funky soul and electrifying electro, is a dancefloor time machine that transports us straight to the heart of the soulful '70s and I'm sure many a music lover will find it to be both a thoroughly enjoyable and staggeringly fun listening ...
After two weeks of PopScore we're thrilled with how much interest it has generated. We have awarded hundreds of thousand of Play Credits and have received a tremendous amount of positive feedback. There have also been a fair number of questions. Three recurring questions that we will try and answer below are: - How is the PopScore calculated? - What’s a good PopScore? - How can I improve my PopScore? So here's the lowdown: How is the PopSc ore calculated? As some of you probably know, each time we play your song to one of Jango's 7 Million listeners we ask them to rate your song. We do this through the use of a pop up window (the Make’m or Break ‘em overlay). When listening to your song the listener can give a thumbs up, thumbs down, become your fan, leave a comment and more. We enter all these listener reactions into a formula to determine which songs, and therefore which bands, are most popular with our listeners. In simple terms the PopScore is a ratio computed by total ...
