For anyone looking to add some Latin flavor to a production, I have uploaded three percussion sample packs that would be right at home in such a project. First, since you always need more cowbell, I have recorded a multi-velocity and dry rock bell. For more variety in bell sounds, I offer a pair of high and low Agogo bells. Finally, I also have recorded a pair of differently pitched maraca shakers.

If you're interested, you can get the packs here:

Cowbell: https://freesound.org/people/pjcohen/packs/21519/
Agogo: https://freesound.org/people/pjcohen/packs/23370/
Maracas: https://freesound.org/people/pjcohen/packs/23371/

And as a final bonus, here are some sweeps up and down a bar chime tree:

Feedback is welcome and appreciated, do enjoy!

for the chimes I would advise you to lower the recording gain because it seems like its clipping to hard /: especially the down-chimes
I would record it a little bit further away.
