About Ska

In the beginning Jamaica don't produce music and the prime minister motivated the change. Among the first sound system was Trojan (today is a ,a very cool music producer).
Ska have three moments
The first is The First Wave or the Traditional Ska
This is the time of Skatalites Band, the ska isn't a style in this moment, people say "this music are a modern Jamaican Music" then others artist was more intense in changes and the sound was forming.
The name Ska don't have a true origin but it is said to be the word that describes the style.
The second is The Second Wave
Was really short but have good exponents like Madness or The Specials, they are so recognized and they continue in production of albums and concerts.
And the third and last The Third Wave
This is the wave that still exists because this is a renovation but at the same time recover the classic ska, some trying play how the first exponents and others do mixtures with the actual styles. One example of this is Ska-p, they play ska but but with a mix with punk or rock, other is Los Fabulosos Cadillacs. In this time the Latin Americans have a lot of incidence.
