As the song develops, it evolves into a ska\/reggae groove, representing the colorful 1980s environment in which genres were freely combined. The non-English vocals provide an exotic elegance to the exotica-influenced setting, which\u00a0integrates reggae and calypso elements. The sound has a nostalgic warmth about it, reminding of old Caribbean sunshine and urban club culture. &#8220;Vida Loka&#8221; at moments reminds me of The Police&#8217;s reggae &#8220;efforts,&#8221;\u00a0particularly its combination of laid-back beats with melodic excitement. The guitars stand out brightly all through, hacking through the groove with cool perfection and offering bursts of energy anytime the reggae-dance flow takes a break. Overall, Sly Sugar offers a fresh, crossover music that combines old dance vibes with island soul, creating a song that seems\u00a0unpredictable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"CLIP VIDA LOKA - SLY SUGAR\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mjojLZ54lIk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SlySugarMusic\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SlySugarMusic<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sly_sugar\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sly_sugar<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Vida Loka&#8221; by Sly Sugar begins with an attractive dance beat wrapped in acid-techno\u00a01990s enthusiasm,\u00a0dragging&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":28835,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14,5],"tags":[414,672,4792],"class_list":["post-28834","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pop-rock-reviews","category-reviews","tag-reggae","tag-ska","tag-sly-sugar"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28834","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28834"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28834\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28836,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28834\/revisions\/28836"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28835"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28834"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28834"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28834"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
