2 tone ska is about the greatest argument for promoting and embracing immigration and integration that I have ever come across. Racial, cultural, ethnic, integration always seems to produce mind-bogglingly good and creative results, food, art, ideas. The kind nobody can even predict or imagine.

I'll never forget being introduced to Ska in 8th grade. This girl had Ska written on her notebook. I asked " what is skuh " she laughed said Ska and handed me her Walkman cassette player with an English Beat song playing. I still listen to a lot of Ska and i'm 50 years young. Ska !!!

Whoah - ok no joke. I also am 50 - AND I was introduced to Ska in Gr 8. I went to a Boarding school, one of the "old boys" he was a grad (school only went to gr10) came to visit the school. He had a jacket covered with 2 tone band patches and one badge said "SKA". I asked him what "ess kay ay" (pronouncing it by letter hahahaha) was. He explained it was a style of music, "uptempo reggae". I already liked reggae. The first 2Tone I listened to was I Just Cant Stop it the guy leant me an english beat tape. I eventually worked backward to the original jamaican stuff but 2 Tone still rules. Cheers to 42 years of Ska fandom!

I feel like modern Japanese ska is sort of the next evolution of the genre. Bands like Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, Cool Wise Men, The Miceteeth, Beat Sunset etc. It seems that Japanese ska has a strong jazz influence but other genres too, and yet it still has an old school kind of sound somehow. Ska hasn't developed much in the West over the last 15 years, at least for now.

(Doe Maar vocalist and keyboard player Ernst janzs is from Indonesian heritage But also "Nachtmerrie op hol" (Nightmare on the loose) amd "Dansen met Alice" (Dancing with Alice) where they put themselves on one par with those English bands but never broke big outside the Netherlands or Belgium because of their choice to sing in Dutch.
