Bachata is a romantic guitar-driven music genre that originated in the Dominican Republic, characterized by its distinctive syncopated rhythm and heartfelt lyrics about love and heartbreak. The sound blends acoustic guitars with bongo drums and bass, creating an intimate, danceable groove that's slower and more melodic than merengue. Originally associated with rural working-class communities, bachata has evolved into a globally popular Latin music style.
