Cant carry a rhythm to save your life? Dont worry! The Parranda app has your back! Select one of five savory rhythms from the ritmos menu and play along with your favorite instrument. Youll sound like a Puerto Rican pro!
To maximize your Parranda experience, we recommend hooking up your iPhone or iPod touch to external speakers or your home entertainment center sound system. Parrandas high-quality recordings sound best when played through external speakers - the louder the better!

Super app ... macht spaß ...
Excellent application. We need a multimedia index of Puerto Rican festivals, traditions, ... to help preserve our culture for us who have moved around the world.
Excellent work!! Weve had a few Parranda moments in Los Angeles, thanks to this app. The L.A. Ricans say muchas gracias!!
Tremendo! Love this app. A must have for any music lover & all Boricuas. Its like adding Softito to las Habichuelas, you just made my iPhone sabroso con sabor Puertorriqeno. ;-) Great job. Keep up the good work.
The new Parrandator allows me to fire up the party when I connect it to my stereo. Ive rocked the neighborhood with my Parranda DJ skills without having to switch out instruments! Love it!
