"Island selection the big show"
“Islandselector” Highlights the Unity of the Caribbean Islands as One
I’ve always love Music since the age when could Drink and Eat with a Bottle and a Spoon
My Mum and Dad from the Nature Island of Dominica always said that Music was a passion that I always had.
Creole Music was always a big Influence at that stage and it was only a matter of time that the art form of Soca Music would play a big part of my life.
When my parents move back to the UK it was very difficult to hear Soca Music around and could remembered when going to the Notthinghill Carnival in the 80’s Listening to the energy of the Music at that time which was very special.
I developed playing Soca music on various Radio Stations in London :Choice FM, Revive Fm , Unique Fm, Beat Fm ,Soca Fm , Juice 102.5 FM ,
Now currently on Temporadio.co.uk Wednesday 9-12 PM and Interview Many of the Top Soca artist around the World to many names to Mention.
My Only Regret is that never interviewed the late Great Aldwyn Roberts (Lord kitchener).
I have also contributed to UK’s only Dedicated Soca Magazine, SOCA NEWS.
With the Involvement of the Soca Saga Boys and Co2 Promotions taken Soca Music and the art form beyond many boundaries across the Eupening City’s in Germany, Denmark, Cypress it has been a journey worth its weight in Gold .
Soca Music is so diverse that it holds no boundaries with the fusion of Ragga, House, R & B Soul and Hip-Hop
Its Greatest Goal is to be at its Rightful place as an Art form and to be recognised at the MOBO’s and Grammy awards.
