Fort Knox Recordings is proud to present “Sabor Tropical”, the debut album from The Empresarios. Sabor Tropical combines latin funk, cumbia, dub and reggaeton on a groove tip. The Empresarios have created an album that is sophisticated and sexy, and yet has street credibility all at the same time.

This album will take you from the relaxing beaches of Playa del Carmen to the streets of the Lower East Side in Manhattan and everywhere in between. Hailing from the Washington, DC area, the Empresarios are adept at mixing cultures and sounds together. This five man collaborative effort encompasses multiple influences and styles. Javier Miranda is the bandleader along with John Bowen, Paul Chaconas, Sonny Cheeba and DJ Sammy Khosh. They are a mix of DJs and musicians, there is no shortage of creativity among the collective.

Downtempo, dub, Latin, house, trip-hop and reggaeton can all be heard in their music because that is what they play in their cars and at the clubs. The 15 tracks of sun-drenched vibes on “Sabor Tropical” are perfect for a warm- up session or a nice cool down at any time of the year.
