Dominican Dembow
Dominican dembow (), also known as simply dembow, is a style of music originating from the Dominican Republic which has been mostly described as a subgenre or derivative form of reggaeton which evolved from dancehall. Dominican dembow is characterized by its use of a sped-up dembow rhythm as its core percussion element (while standard reggaeton employs the same rhythm at a slower tempo). The name dembow is credited to the Shabba Ranks song Dem Bow which was remixed by Wisin Y Yandel and many others and the Dembow beat became a staple in the reggaeton community. The subgenre diverged from early reggaeton during the 2000s. During this time, Puerto Rican reggaeton was evolving to become more melodic, polished, and lyrically romantic, and would eventually become the basis for most reggaeton music today. However, the "softening process" marginalized the scene in the Dominican Republic, which retained a rawer, unembellished, and more aggressive sound. A simultaneous shift towards fa ...
