VISIT Trinidad is a mix that features strictly music from Trinidad for the Carnival 2023 season. One hour of the bangers mixed by Dj Private Ryan

The return to Trinidad and Tobago for carnival is upon us and there is a lot of music that has been released so far. It was very challenging making this edition of Soca Starter as there is so much music released at this point. As a result Soca Starter is a bit longer this time but this is a GREAT guide on what to expect. This is not all the great music that is out but learn and enjoy these first and then Soca Brainwash will take care of the rest. Enjoy!!!

Was cruising through some music the other night and decided to make a new series. Just an eclectic blend of music, no talking, less drops and sound effects. Great for a lounge vibe and is mid paced as oppsoed to the Press Play series. Take a listen and enjoy!!

This mix was actually done in October right after Miami Carnival even though I never made an official mix this year but was never uploaded to the site. Better late than never though! Learn some of these songs as we gear up for Soca Starter, Soca Brainwash and Trinidad Carnival. As usual this mix focused on the islands and some of the new releases at the time.

Private Ryan VS The Music series returns. Usually out in September for the birthday celebrations but definitely not forgotten. As usual this mix takes you on a journey seamlessly through genres using wordplay and unique transitions. Enjoy!

The continuation of the SOCA BABY series as we gear up for the first ever SOCA BABY cruise in Trinidad carnival as well as Stage 2 at Soca Brainwash.

The PRESS PLAY series continues with yet another edition. You know how we mix up the genres in one smooth flow. Press Play and enjoy!!
