TRINIDAD is the creative center of the whole musical energy of the CARIBBEAN, the strongest and most complete meeting-point of the cultures, music and dances flourishing in the islands of center America.

Strongest are here the influences from AFRICA, but also all influences from peoples and cultures that came to meet here.

African dances melt with reggae, calypso, soca, giving life to new dances that take the name of rapsò, ragga soca, rapso/calypso, chutney soca, full of energy and happyness. The lyrics, although aware of the so many social, political and economic problems of people in this area, face them with a positive vitality.

An energy and vitality that affect with new musical impulse the stale landscape of current international music.

This is why the sunshine, the sea and the phisycal and psychological climate of the Caribbean are more and more influencing also our culture and our music.

This collection of the current most popular hits in the Caribbean is a sort of cocktail of tropical sounds, flavours and perfumes for a "Caribbean Party full of joy and new energy.

From the new, contemporary "reggae version of the famous "dance track JOE LE TAXI, performed by youngest SHARLENE BOODRAM with the help of hip-hop DJ Patrick "VYBE Gordon, to "BLUE!, the most acclaimed song from the Trinidad 97 Carnival, to "Raggamuffin by SQUARE ONE, to four songs by the "rapso star BROTHER RESISTANCE, new "prophet of reggae, to the hits "ICE CREAM by Coalishun, "HMMM by Kindred/Ricky General, to "Bring Down the Rhythm by AJALA, to "Weakness For Sweetness, to other very popular tracks, yet still not so popular in Europe .

But wait and see the videos of 6 of these songs on MTV, Videomusic and similar Music Channels,and above all listen to the rhythm and energy of these songs: you,ll be conquered !

In Summer 94 our label started the "Colleccion Tropical Sabrosa with two compilations and two albums of salsa, merengue and such latin-american rhythms, hardly known in Europe at the times, performed by Artists as Oscar D,Leon, Carlos Alberto, Hildemaro, Orlando Watussi, Carlos Ugueto.

Today everybody is dancing salsa and merengue, these Artist,s names are among the most popular, all orchstras perform these songs...

Today, the same "Colleccion Tropical Sabrosa pushes forward the rhythm border-line, with artists and dances of great success in the Caribbean Islands: soon they,ll be popular also over here !

Listen to them, discover them, and... enjoy yourselves !
