Aug. 30, 2007 - PRLog -- About 2 years ago Motown released its Motown Remixed CD. The project took classic Motown hits and remixed them using some of the best beat makers in the hip-hop and rap music business today.

That project introduced many in the hip-hop and rap music arena to the classic sounds of Motown and a much appreciated time in music history – The Motown era.

Now comes the release of Motown Remixed Volume 2. The classic Motown Sound and modern Latin grooves are heard side-by-side at nightclubs and house parties every day in just about every corner of America.

The compilations ‘Latin Flavor’ is accomplished thru a great mix of contemporary Latin styles mixed with Latin House, Reggaeton and hip hop beats.

Motown Remixed Volume 2 executive producer Rich Isaacson says: “The Motown Remixed Volume 2 project was an amazing opportunity for some of the most talented producers in Latin Music to pay homage to the legendary Motown artists they each chose to remix.
