This type of music has a festive, lively style and is marked by jocular, mischievous lyrics. Pachanga originated in Cuba in the 1950s and played an important role in the evolution of <a href="/wiki/List_of_Caribbean_music_genres" title="List of Caribbean music genres">Caribbean style music</a> as it is today. Considered a prominent contributor to the eventual rise of <a href="/wiki/Salsa_music" title="Salsa music">salsa</a>, Pachanga itself is an offshoot music played by <a href="/wiki/Charanga_(Cuba)" title="Charanga (Cuba)">charangas</a>. Very similar in sound to <a href="/wiki/Cha-cha-cha_(dance)" title="Cha-cha-cha (dance)">Cha-Cha</a> but with a notably stronger down-beat, Pachanga once experienced massive popularity all across the <a href="/wiki/Caribbean" title="Caribbean">Caribbean</a> and was brought to the United States by Cuban immigrants post World War II.

Pachanga is a very grounded dance, with the knees never completely straightening and an emphasis on weight and energy going into the ground. Body movement resulting from weight changes follows the footwork. With a bounce originating in the knees, the upper body will rock as body connectivity and posture are maintained. It mimics a basic mambo step in foot placement and weight shift while incorporating a glide on weight transfer instead of a tap. The shift in weight from one foot to the other gives the illusion of gliding, similar to a moonwalk. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Lapic_and_johnson_salsa_shine.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8e/Lapic_and_johnson_salsa_shine.jpg/220px-Lapic_and_johnson_salsa_shine.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="157" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8e/Lapic_and_johnson_salsa_shine.jpg/330px-Lapic_and_johnson_salsa_shine.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8e/Lapic_and_johnson_salsa_shine.jpg/440px-Lapic_and_johnson_salsa_shine.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4347" data-file-height="3103" /></a><figcaption>Salsa dancers performing a shine</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Modern_Pachanga">Modern Pachanga</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pachanga&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Modern Pachanga"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Pachanga dance today is mainly seen incorporated into <a href="/wiki/Salsa_(dance)" title="Salsa (dance)">salsa</a> shines or footwork. “Shines” can refer either to a performance by a group of solo men or women without a partner, or a pause in partnerwork for each dancer to show off before coming back together.

America is where Pachanga truly became popular and known in the public consciousness and developed into the music, dance and overall influence that it is today. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Cuban_immigration">Cuban immigration</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pachanga&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Cuban immigration"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The development of the style of music that came to be known as <a href="/wiki/Salsa_music" title="Salsa music">Salsa</a> in the U.S. in the late 1960s relied heavily on the Latin music scene in <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a> and more specifically the <a href="/wiki/South_Bronx" title="South Bronx">South Bronx</a>. In the post World War Two era, New York city experienced a surge of Cuban immigration. During this time Cuba underwent several economic and social crises including the destabilization of international tobacco and sugar markets and civil upheavals that further disrupted the already fragile Cuban republic.<sup id="cite_ref-Duany_2017_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Duany_2017-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> As a result, tens of thousands of Cubans migrated to the U.S. hoping to find greater economic opportunities and more civil liberties, establishing sizeable communities in <a href="/wiki/New_Orleans" title="New Orleans">New Orleans</a>, <a href="/wiki/Tampa" class="mw-redirect" title="Tampa">Tampa</a>, and New York City.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The start of the <a href="/wiki/Cuban_Revolution" title="Cuban Revolution">Cuban Revolution</a> in 1953 only gave Cuban civilians more reason to flee the country, adding to the flood of immigrants to the United States.<sup id="cite_ref-Duany_2017_6-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Duany_2017-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Rise_of_Pachanga_in_New_York">Rise of Pachanga in New York</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pachanga&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Rise of Pachanga in New York"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>At the time, the South Bronx had large developments of affordable public housing where many Cubans and other Caribbean immigrants ended up finding a place to call home. In addition to housing, the South Bronx also offered a strong infrastructure for the growth of a culturally rich community. The Cuban communities that formed brought with them their own art and culture and in particular they brought with them Cuban music and dance.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The Caribbean music scene in New York exploded along with the rise of Caribbean ballrooms, clubs and dance halls. These establishments featured all the popular Caribbean music styles of the era, beginning with the <a href="/wiki/Mambo_music" class="mw-redirect" title="Mambo music">Mambo</a>. The Mambo grew in popularity at an alarming rate sparking “Mambo mania” throughout the U.S. to the point that even mainstream musicians such as <a href="/wiki/Rosemary_Clooney" title="Rosemary Clooney">Rosemary Clooney</a> and <a href="/wiki/Perry_Como" title="Perry Como">Perry Como</a> were incorporating the sounds of Mambo into their pop music. The success that Mambo had in finding its way into the mainstream paved the way for other forms of Caribbean music to be successful. It wasn't long before everyone in New York was listening and dancing to Pachanga.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Two clubs in particular that are inextricably linked with Pachanga's development and popularity are the Triton After-Hours Club and the Caravana Club. The Bronx's Caravana Club is commonly thought of as the home of Pachanga. Opened in the summer of 1959, the Caravana Club instantly became a major hub for the Latin music scene in New York by presenting major bands every week. The clubs popularity truly rose after the live recording of <a href="/wiki/Charlie_Palmieri" title="Charlie Palmieri">Charlie Palmieri</a>’s "Pachanga at the Caravana Club" in 1961 which cemented its reputation as the home of Pachanga. At the Triton Club on the other hand, <a href="/wiki/Johnny_Pacheco" title="Johnny Pacheco">Johnny Pacheco</a> improvised a dance move known as the “Bronx Hop” which later became a major part of the Pachanga dance fad. </p><p>A group of patrons at the Caravana Club even formed a dance group named “Los Pachangueros” that performed across the city. At this time, a Pachanga dance craze had also struck the city with such popularity that countless articles about it made their way into mainstream American publications including <i><a href="/wiki/The_New_York_Times" title="The New York Times">The New York Times</a></i>, <i>El Diario</i> and the specialized <i>Ballroom Dance Magazine</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pachanga&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-1">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Peter Manuel (May 1987).
