Les freres Dejean de Petion ville in Malere

This is what Kompa music is all about. The pure Kompa was played by musical bands such as Les freres Dejean de Petion ville and many others. The key point is that that the music of Haiti went through a fast growth during the 1970s and the 1980s. We were able to see many great artists who came out at the time. For instance, when you look at bands such as Freres Dejean, Ambassadeur, Skah Shah, Tabou Combo, Septentrionale and Tropicana, you realize that these people were able to make a big difference in the Haitian music.

Just listen to Les freres Dejean de Petion ville with one of their biggest hit "malere" . You can see why they are, indeed, the "creme de la creme" of Kompa music.
