Here in the windy City, and around the world, a lot of
our haitian younger brothers
are being taught to embrace music styles from everywhere else but those of our
Beloved Country. We think that the time has come to take a stand, to let it
know across the world we are not just followers, able to appreciate other countries
music such as Salsa, Meringue, Reggae, Zouk, that we
will never sell out, commercialize our style to appeal to the Green Back, not
every haitian is a "vaudouisant",
that the real haitian style is, Konpa,
hard or New Generation.
(POUKI SA NOU LA?)
Have you tried a search for Rock, Reggae, Country, Samba?...Thousands
of links, or sites.....
Now, try Konpa or however you want to spell it, not one site with a midi file. Our mission is simple
change this situation, increase the exposure of
Haitian music on the Web. We will need your help: we have tons of
musicians sequencing numerous haitian
music styles, we would like to invite you to send us your midi files, originals
or interpretations. We will post them to our site while handing out the proper
credits to you for your original creations or to you and the original
composer(s) and you if they are interpretations.
PS.- The
files below are posted for your sole enjoyment. By downloading them you agree
with us that you can 't use them in any shape or form for any kind of public or
"lucrative" performance without the written consent of the composers.
