===Bouyon soca=== {{Main|Bouyon soca}} Bouyon soca, sometimes referred to as "jump up soca", is a fusion genre that typically blends old [[Bouyon music|bouyon]] rhythms from the '90s and soca music. Bouyon soca is a term coined by non-Dominican producers and musicians, mainly from St Lucia, who embrace both Soca from Trinidad and Bouyon music from Dominica and so find it natural to produce blends of both music genres. Bouyon is a music genre that originated in Dominica that is distinguishable from its older "colleague" Soca. In Dominica while there may have been the occasional fusions, bouyon has always maintained a very clear, recognizable and different style from soca. Outside of Dominica the Bouyon Soca fusion style is popular in islands like Antigua, Saint Lucia, [[Guadeloupe]] and [[Martinique]] and is a natural evolution from Zouk and Soca fusions that were popular there during the 1980s.
