Derived termsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Ska (pronounced /ˈskɑː/, Jamaican [skja]) is a music genre that originated in Jamaica in the late 1950s, and was the precursor to rocksteady and reggae. Ska combined elements of Caribbean mento and calypso with American jazz and rhythm and blues. It is characterized by a walking bass line accented with rhythms on the upbeat. In the early 1960s, ska was the dominant music genre of Jamaica and was popular with British Mods. Later it became popular with many skinheads. Music historians typically divide the history of ska into three periods: the original Jamaican scene of the 1960s (First Wave), the English 2 Tone ska revival of the late 1970s (Second Wave) and the third wave ska movement, which started in the 1980s (Third Wave) and rose to popularity in the US in the 1990s.

Q. I'm a drummer, and also a singer, and my band switches its genre around a little for each album. This Summer we're doing an RX Bandits style kind of thing, so its not really ska-punk, more like reggae mixed with progressive rock and melodic hardcore. Are there any drumming techniques to learn that are reggae related? Or any kind of percussion kind of thing at all, that maybe I can relate to drums?
