Marce, great work using what you got and transforming the arrangement to make this song different and make it build up with emotion. My only concern with the mix is that I feel the drums and percussion are not present enough to my taste, I got the bombo with some shakers, but I need the snare, the cunono and the palitos, all that. I respect your creative decision, I just need to feel that rhythm, specially in a Colombian song with a title as Rumba Chonta, being rumba all about rhythm. Nevertheless, the direction you are taking here it's the right one, arrangement it's really important and you got the creativity to make it work. I love the sampling of the saxophone. You couldn't wait to the end to get those saxs blowing that catchy melody!
Cheers

Thanks Javier for your comments. You're right about the percussion, I should make them more present. Greetings !
