Amazing First Citizens Supernovas tenors dazzle with Johnny King's "Wet Me Down"
Originally posted on the blog Sokah2Soca (www.sokah2soca.com). We bring you only the best new music, while Island Vbye Radio rocks it live on the air!!
The First Citizens Supernovas Steel Orchestra delivered a stellar performance at the Panorama preliminaries last night, playing Johnny King’s Wet Me Down, arranged by Amrit Samaroo. Last night, the band—led by captain Amrit Samaroo—exhibited their musical talent with a stellar performance. Their lively and energetic rendition of the classic calypso song "Wet Me Down" is one to remember.
The band, hailing from Surrey Village, Lopinot Road, Arouca, was the first to perform in the Eastern Region of the large category preliminaries. They faced tough competition from other bands such as Harmonites and Exodus, but they did not let that deter them from giving their best.
The arrangement by Amrit Samaroo, son of the legendary Jit Samaroo, featured a variety of dynamic and rhythmic changes, as well as creative harmonies and melodies. The band also displayed a high level of coordination and synchronization and a clear and balanced sound. The band’s performance impressed the audience in attendance, which earned them a standing ovation and loud applause.
The band is confident that they will make it to the semi-finals, and they are looking forward to improving their performance even more. They are grateful for the support of their sponsor, First Citizens, and their fans, who have been with them throughout their journey. They are also proud to represent their community and culture and hope to inspire the next generation of pan players.
To conclude, those tenor pans were amazing; the bass section shared the stage, and the middle pans evened things out. As a result, one can only say, that First Citizens Supernovas orchestration shone brightly at the 2024Panorama preliminaries with Wet Me Down!

Exodus plays Long Time for the National Panorama 2024
Originally posted on the blog Sokah2Soca (www.sokah2soca.com). We bring you only the best new music, while Island Vbye Radio rocks it live on the air!!
Republic Bank Exodus Steelband, one of the most popular and successful steel orchestras in Trinidad and Tobago, delivered a stunning performance of "Long Time" by Arrow at the National Panorama 2024 large bands' preliminaries on Monday, January 22. Long Time is a classic Soca tune that is beloved in the Caribbean region and a favorite for steelbands to play.
The band, based in St. Augustine, East Trinidad, showcased their musical skills and versatility with a dynamic and energetic rendition of the song. "BJ" Marcelle's arrangement was appreciated and received a standing ovation from the band's adoring fans.
As noted in a previous post, this competition will be very difficult to judge. One would hope for less tied scores and, most of all, to see Exodus move on to the next round of competition. We wish them continued success.

Kayak Soca Mega Mix by Dj Glaj | Carriacou Carnival 2024
Originally posted on the blog Sokah2Soca (www.sokah2soca.com). We bring you only the best new music, while Island Vbye Radio rocks it live on the air!!
Trinidad and Tobago may be on a musical bull run for Carnival 2024, but just as the Twin Island Republic celebrates Carnival 2024, there is another carnival with the same dates. Carriacou, the sister island of Grenada, also hosts a pre-lenten carnival. Today we present a mix tape by Dj GlaJ that features some of the music for Kayak Mas 2024.
The music for Kayak Mas is very different from that of Trinidad and Tobago. Yes, Soca is the music, but they present a different musical style familiar to those who enjoy Jab Soca music. The music is fast-paced, ranging in speed between groove and power soca. This is all about carnival energy, and the people of Carriacou are always energized for Carnival. Let the music play on. Enjoy!
