Looking for some soca tunes from Antigua and Dominica

Anyone know where I can get access to soca music from these islands? Any help would be appreciated.

And you can also listen to some Antiguan music at Red Hot Flames - Antigua and The Caribbean's Number One Soca Band

Thanks a lot, however, I am not just looking for music to listen to online. Probably I can do some more research to see what I come up with. Once I find something I'll update you. Thanks again.

It is sad.

Here are a few albums available.

Sensay has some Dominica in general, but no updates for '07.

I don't know why this makes me so upset sometimes, cause I'm not from a soca producing island. They're people in T.O. trying to figure out how to get Zoelah's music. Her music is being played on commercial radio as we speak. In Ja. the music is for sale before it's sung.....ok ok I exagger.........

Just wondering....how much does it cost for artists to get their albums on Itunes store ? Reason why I ask is because I know some small time hip hop artists with albums on Itunes and they not superstars.

A CD, $35.00(some will charge more, but it is usually under $100) to register and upload the CD, a UPC code - most distribution companies that do digital require 5 CD's to be listed for sale. Some don't charge the set up fee, but they have to approve you and they require a written agreement. It takes anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months to get your CD up and running.

I found ITunes to be the easiest, they took only 4 days with Sparkey and Friends Back 2 Basics: CD Baby: MICHAEL SPARKEY DRAKES: Sparkey & Friends Back 2 Basics

When you sign up with these companies you can select where your song is available for download, napster, playpay etc.
