19 Latin language and latin influenced Hardcore, Techno, and Gabber House tracks from the 1990s rave era

Gabber and Hardcore were not just inside Rotterdam, of course. Even back in the 90s, the scene was already a global movement. There was Hardcore from the USA, UK, Germany, France, Italy, even Russia...
Yet, despite my research, I could not find much Hardcore releases in that era, that *actually* comes from countries like Spain, or from South America, etc...
But, there definitely was a scene in those parts of the world, too!

And, there had been a lot of latin country related tracks, or those with latin language samples... even if the producers, in many cases, came from other countries...

And that is what we are gonna look at, here!

01. Ramirez - El Gallinero (Axis Remix)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZVgF5823fU
The classic "early Gabber" track by Ramirez!

02. Final Analyzis - El Punto Final (Power Mix) (1992)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PUXVaCM-tQ
Another "Thunderdome" classic!

03. Bardot - Viva La Revolution!
Long live the (gabber) revolution... indeed.

04. Charly Lownoise & Mental Theo - Descontrolla
"Ey amigo!"... maybe one of the best Charly & Theo Gabber tracks?

05. DJ Waxweazle - La Onda (Blood In, Blood Out Mix) (1996)
Heavily samples the latin gangster movie "Blood in Blood out"... so cool!

Techno-acid with a bit of an hardcore edge...

14. Re-Charge - C+caina
Gabber track from the late 90s, before "new style" took over.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aswaByrL0A

15. Division Barcelona - El Hombre Máquina
Interesting obscure track... discogs lists this as "Makina" genre, but, with several hundred bpms in the middle part, I guess this is very hardcore, indeed!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzOkCmVfdx4

16. Terra Wan - De P+ta Madre (Spanish Mix)
"Techno" classic that is on the harder side of music.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBLUK8kmezY

17. Hardcore Trance - Hiro De Puta (1993)
Like in between late 80s techno and early 90s hardcore!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2K2AsEpCDHE

18. The Speed Freak - El Hombre Máquina
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYTlwzI-mzs
We already had a track with this name in the list... but this one is quite different!

19. The Bellini Bros - Samba De Janero
The inventor of Hardcore, Marc Acardipane, ends this list with this party smasher from 1997.
