![]() ![]() Exitos y Mas presents some of the best material, the duo at its best. Their smooth, evocative voices blend as only those who've performed side by side together for years could. Though the product of a record-label petri dish, which for some is a serious strike against their legitimacy, the pair makes for a very cohesive duo. Their romantic, slick, well-produced sound continues to do amazingly well with stateside listeners as well, having reached Billboard's Top 200 with more than just one release. In a day when the majority of pop-bachata music is a New York product, and most of the listening public still resides in the Dominican Republic, the Santo Domingo-based Monchy & Alexandra are a much welcomed change. With their popularity on the rise and their catalog getting too big for the average fan to afford, Exitos y Mas was certainly welcomed by both their friends at J&N Records and their adoring fan base. With five records to their credit, it was high time for Monchy & Alexandra to put their names to a "greatest-hits" collection. Monchy y Alexandra has maintained the feeling of romantic bachata with slight influences of other rhythms such as Antillean music, rock, and Arabian music, as well as authentic folkloric rhythms of their homeland, the Dominican Republic.
