The Atlantic music features rhythms such as the cumbia, porros and mapalé. Music from the Pacific coast such features rhythms such as the <i>currulao</i> —which is tinged with Spanish influence— and the Jota chocoana (along with many more afro-drum predominating music forms)—tinged with African and Aboriginal influence. Colombian Andean has been strongly influenced by Spanish rhythms and instruments, and differs noticeably from the indigenous music of Peru or Bolivia. Typical forms include the <i>bambuco</i>, <i>pasillo guabina</i> and <i>torbellino</i>, played with pianos and string instruments such as the <i>tiple guitarra</i>. The music of Los Llanos, <i>música llanera</i>, is usually accompanied by a harp, a <i>cuatro</i> (a type of four-string guitar) and maracas. It has much in common with the music of the Venezuelan Llanos. </p><p>Apart from these traditional forms, two newer musical styles have conquered large parts of the country: <i>la salsa</i>, which has spread throughout the Pacific coast and the <i>vallenato</i>, which originated in La Guajira and César (on the northern Caribbean coast). The latter is based on European accordion music. <a href="/wiki/Merengue_music" title="Merengue music">Merengue music</a> is heard as well.

Bachata, merengue and salsa are now equally popular among Spanish-speaking Caribbean people. When the Spanish <i>conquistadors</i> sailed across the Atlantic they brought with them a type of music known as <i>hesparo</i>, which contributed to the development of Dominican music. A romantic style is also popular in the Dominican Republic from vocalists such as Angela Carrasco, Anthony Rios, Maridalia Hernandez and Olga Lara. Reggaeton is currently one the most popular genres coming out of the Dominican Republic at the moment. It has been recently popularized in night clubs with these high beats. This was made by the help of Dominican artist El Alfa. El Alfa has made "dembow" one the most popular types of reggaeton.

Mestizo music evolved from the interrelation between Spanish and Indian music. It has rhythms such as <i>pasacalles</i>, <i>pasillos</i>, <i>albazos</i> and <i>sanjuanitos</i>, and is usually played by stringed instruments. There are also regional variations: coastal styles, such as <i>vals</i> (similar to <a href="/wiki/Vals_Peruano_(Waltz)" class="mw-redirect" title="Vals Peruano (Waltz)">Vals Peruano (Waltz)</a>) and <i>montubio</i> music (from the coastal hill country). </p><p>Indian music in Ecuador is determined in varying degrees by the influence of <i>quichua</i> culture. Within it are <i>sanjuanitos</i> (different from the <i>mestizo sanjuanito</i>), <i>capishkas</i>, <i>danzantes</i> and <i>yaravis</i>. Non-<i>quichua</i> indigenous music ranges from the <a href="/wiki/Ts%C3%A1chila" title="Tsáchila">Tsáchila</a> music of <a href="/wiki/Santo_Domingo" title="Santo Domingo">Santo Domingo</a> (influenced by the neighboring Afro-marimba) to the Amazonian music of groups such as the <a href="/wiki/Shuar_people" class="mw-redirect" title="Shuar people">Shuar</a>. </p><p>Black Ecuadorian music can be classified into two main forms. The first type is black music from the coastal Esmeraldas province, and is characterized by the marimba. The second variety is black music from the Chota Valley in the northern Sierra (primarily known as <a href="/wiki/Bomba_(Ecuador)" title="Bomba (Ecuador)">Bomba del Chota</a>), characterized by a more-pronounced mestizo and Indian influence than <i>marimba esmeraldeña</i>. Most of these musical styles are also played by wind ensembles of varying sizes at popular festivals around the country. Like other Latin American countries, Ecuadorian music includes local exponents of international styles: from opera, salsa and rock to cumbia, thrash metal and jazz. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="El_Salvador">El Salvador</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Music_of_Latin_America&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: El Salvador"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Music_of_El_Salvador" title="Music of El Salvador">Music of El Salvador</a></div> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:KarlaCubias.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5c/KarlaCubias.jpg/200px-KarlaCubias.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="166" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5c/KarlaCubias.jpg/300px-KarlaCubias.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5c/KarlaCubias.jpg/400px-KarlaCubias.jpg 2x" data-file-width="644" data-file-height="536" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Karla_Cubias" title="Karla Cubias">Karla Cubias</a></figcaption></figure> <p>Salvadoran music may be compared with the <a href="/wiki/Colombian_culture" class="mw-redirect" title="Colombian culture">Colombian</a> style of music known as <i><a href="/wiki/Cumbia" title="Cumbia">cumbia</a></i>.
