	Music of Martinique and Guadeloupe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zouk's origins are in the folk music of Martinique and Guadeloupe, especially Martinican chouval bwa and Guadeloupan gwo ka, and the pan-Caribbean calypso tradition.
		Elements of gwo ka, tambour, ti bwa and biguine vidé are prominent in zouk.
		Zouk live shows soon began to draw on American and European rock and heavy metal traditions, and the genre spread across the world, primarily in developing countries.

	Marce et Toumpak - Free Music Downloads, Videos, CDs, MP3s, Bio, Merchandise and Links
		Drummer Marce Pago, along with Dede St. Prix, took the torch first lit by Eugene Mona in the '70s and ran with it to bridge the gap between the growing early-'80s zouk scene and a rural percussive form of Martiniquan music called chouval bwa.
		Marce coined the term for this new form, "zouk chouv'," with his 1987 album of the same name.
		His early albums, prior to Zouk Chouv', are not strong on electric instruments and are, in fact, in many ways more in keeping with the return-to-roots trend of the '90s.

		When Marce and Toumpak arrive at this year's Jazz Fest, audiences will have the opportunity to enjoy the most exciting pop music coming out of the French Antilles island of Martinique.

		Exotic in name only, these musical styles will captivate audiences with their universal rhythms and natural melodies, and will bring to light the dynamic cultural connections between Louisiana and Martinique.
		Marcé, whose years with the Grand Ballet de Martinique give him a strong background in the rhythms of his island, sometimes calls on a traditional lineup of hand drums, ti bwa bamboo percussion and flute within his group to deliver a folksy side of the musical picture.
		When he adds trap set drums, electric guitar, bass and keyboards to the mix, he moves into the contemporary sound called zouk chouv'.
