My wife and I are learning this song for a cinco de mayo party. I went through a bunch of styles on my Yamaha 950 and Audya but nothing really felt right. Any recommendations?

The song is called "asi es la vida" (that's the way life is) by Mexican superstars Rayli and Joan Sebastian.

Give the Rock Cha Cha a try. I don't have my keyboard in the house right now, so no for me to check my third party files.

I uploaded 2 Reggaeton Styles for you, plus some latin styles I found on my HD
The Reggaeton Style in the Euro Dance Expansion pack might also work well.
I think you can find the converted styles on the PSR Tutorial forum.

Enjoy wink

Thanks guys! It's really such a hybrid rhythm. I hear elements of reggaeton, salsa, and even samba. So far what I like best is the samba reggae style that is on the psr 950. I will try to other recommendations to.
