    • Rebles – Taboo (Club Mix)
    • 1. Sweetest Taboo (Soca)
    • 2. Taboo (Club Mix)

    Another essential Soundway reissue!

    In the late 80s, as electronic music permeated popular culture, Rebles helped define the soca genre outside of the Caribbean. A wider audience was reached via this cover of Sade’s hit 1985 song “Sweetest Taboo”, with its distinctive synth hook and drum machine picking up the pace, helping push this version into the clubs at the time.
