Soca

Trinidad's carnival engine

Soca on Trinidadi ja Tobago karnevalimuusika, mis on kiirem ja kiirem kui kalüpso, millest ta kasvas ja ehitas teemarssiks. See on Kariibi karnevali heli üle saarte ja diasporaa.

Origin & history

Soca developed in Trinidad in the 1970s, with the Trinidadian musician Lord Shorty — later Ras Shorty I — widely credited as its originator, fusing calypso with the Indian-Caribbean rhythms of the island.

It became the engine of carnival in Trinidad and then across the Caribbean and its diaspora, with carnivals in London, Toronto, New York and Miami built around it.
