The objective is also to make fluid choreographies since Caribbean rhythms have strong and soft movements. History & Background * Rhythm *Country Soca Trinidad y Tobago Dancehall Jamaica About the Rhythms Soca is a form of dance music which originated in the islands of Trinidad and Tobago from calypso music. It combines the melodic sound of calypso to strong percussion in most modern songs now it is electronic - and local chutney music. Dancehall is a genre of Jamaican popular music. A sparser version of reggae it also speaks on politics and religion but not as direct as roots style. Now we listen to digital dancehall (or ragga ) which has faster rhythms. 1 CARIBBEAN HEAT
