SKA

Hi, now I will talk about my music style.
Another day I say that my favourite music is SKA.
Ska is a music style that borned in Jamaica in 1950, and was the precursor to rocksteady and reggae. Ska combined elements of Caribbean mento and calypso with blues. It is characterized by a walking bass line, accented with rhythms on the offbeat. In the early of 1960, ska was the dominant musical genre of Jamaica, and it was also popular with British moods. Many Skinheads, in various decades, have also enjoyed ska. Music historians typically divide the history of ska into three periods: the original Jamaican ska scene of the 1960, the 2 Tone ska revival that started in England in 1970, and the third wave ska movement, which started in 1980.

Some of my favourite Ska groups are: skalariak, skatalà, los 3 puntos...


see you soon!
