I've been listening to this mix on repeat for about a week now. I think it's one of my favourite mixes. People wonder what Trinidad and Tobago sounds like, some say we are soca land and they think that is all...here's a very small taste of us...soca and all.

In this bonus interview episode of the Saturday Brunch Podcast, R&B vocalist John Skweird, chats about his body of work, and the creative communities that he emerged out of; including Youth Pulse choir, the stomping ground of several other brilliant artists in the late 1990s. Speaking honestly on finding his place in the local music scene and the challenges therein, the St. Barbs native considers experimentation with calypso, his love for hip hop music and the social impact of the 1990 attempted coup on his community environment.
Eagerly returning as principal to the dance school she was trained at, Bridgette Wilson of the Caribbean School of Dance speaks on her work as a choreographer, her involvement in shaping the movement magic of The Lost Tribe Carnival band and her musings as educator transforming young lives. Both artists describe their relationship to music during childhood and how it has framed both their memory and realities.

We often learn best by doing. In this sweeping episode of the Saturday Brunch Podcast, Penelope Spencer shares on adaptability and passion as central to her practice as an actor, director, producer and educator. In driving towards the realness of her characters, ‘Aunty Penny’ reflects on the importance of truth and honesty as the beauty of the craft, and the need for artists to be the catalysts for change in a society besieged by crime and violence. Recalling revolutionary moments of ‘stepping up’ and making their presence felt in the cultural space, Penelope notes the relevance of ‘fringe’ events in previous Carifesta celebrations.

The pot is bubbling, the smell is rising
Ears poised, waistline oiled
After Christmas comes carnival
and I have a taste of some of the bachanall!
More to come, stay tuned,
But in this mix are some of the songs I think will be BIG TUNES!

A chill way to pass some time
Take it in while at work, or in a lime
or even over a glass of wine.
A lil bit of this, a splash of that
Oct 2018, forward and back.
