A shorter than usual holiday-tinged soca catch-up with talk on a sudden venue ban in Trinidad, a sold-out Brawlin in London, and a groovy song of the month.

• Details of the Port of Spain venue ban and backlash
• Brawlin’s sell-out story and turning people away at capacity
• Bajan Independence mix curation and track selection discipline
• song of the month: Machel Montano x Tano’s Compromise in groovy season

And as Nytro says: Make sure you check out Soca Chronicles, tag a friend, tell a friend, share the podcast, let people know that this exists because it's good for the culture, it's good for the vibe, it's good for the energy, it's educational, it's fun, it's funny, it's banterful, and it's good for you to just know a little bit about the people that's making your music and the people that you're involved with listening to.
