MP3 The Golden Aires Mento Band - Island in the Sun

Caribbean Folk music at the roots of Reggae, Calypso, Soca and Ska.

8 MP3 Songs
WORLD: Island, WORLD: Reggae



Details:
This is the debut CD from the Golden Aires. These Jamaican gentlemen aspire to carry on a long tradition of Mento Music, a modern musical art form passed down from generation to generation whose primary purpose is to spread news and to entertain. At its'' core is the 7 - note marimba bass. This is an instrument fashioned from a hollow wooden box, with 7 metal strips attached which resonate a specific note when plucked. It serves both rhythmic and percussive functions in the music. It was through development of such innovations that more contemporary styles of Calypso, Soca and Reggae developed. Comprised mainly of memorable, fun songs, Mento is best described as Caribbean Folk Music!

This CD is a CD-PLUS with Windows Media (R) video of the Golden Airs performing at the beautiful Mais Oui Tennis Villa and Spa (https://www.tradebit.com)on Jamaica''s north coast!
