Chato! collaborated in many aspects of the creative direction, re-design of their website, production of official merchandise, as well as bringing young talented DJs to re-mix their classic catalog. Since then, Fania Records has recognize Global Bass as a genre and included Moombahton and EDM into their catalog.

A unifying, unapologetic, post-genre, mind-bending, booty-shaking future.
