Somos Distribution, the independent audiovisual content distribution company, part of Somos Group and presided by Luis Villanueva, licensed the series "Súbete a Mi Moto" to Amazon Prime Video in the United States.

With this premiere, the series produced by Somos Productions, Endemol Shine Boomdog and Piñolywood Studios, reaches one of the most important markets in the world, with a Spanish-speaking population of significant size and where the Puerto Rican community plays an important role.

The already acclaimed series has been successfully distributed in Mexico, Latin America, Spain and Brazil and has also been shown through television channels in Mexico and Puerto Rico with record audiences. Súbete a Mi Moto"", consists of 15 episodes, of 60 minutes each, presenting the story of the Puerto Rican band and the 'Menudomanía', as well as the internal incidents between manager Edgardo Díaz and the members of the band. The musical and biographical production, which includes the soundtrack of more than 30 hits of the group, was recorded in Mexico and Puerto Rico in public places and built sets that allude to the 70s and 80s, the golden age of the group. The soundtrack includes more than 30 hits from the group, and the casting was an elaborate process to identify young people with the necessary artistic talent (they then received acting training for each character). Many scenes were filmed in public places with live audiences.
