Black Rose (Fiji group)

Black Rose (of Fiji) is a Fijian music band, currently signed by the New-Caledonian music label "Mangrove Productions".

After releasing several covers albums locally, they really broke through [ [http://worldmusic.nationalgeographic.com/worldmusic/view/page.basic/artist/content.artist/black_rose_7262 Profile] at worldmusic.nationalgeographic.com] with their first original album released in 2000 Voices of Nature, and the single Raude. This song is a mix between a traditional fidjian music form called "meke", and modern dance rhythms and sounds, brought in by David LE ROY, producer and co-founder of the famous 2001 french dance act Daddy DJ. "Voices of Nature" was a huge success in the whole south Pacific area, and paved the path for Black Rose's second album released in 2002 Kila...?. It was followed in 2005 by their first best-of album Rosiloa, which featured a new song, as well as unreleased remixes and video footage from the making of Kila...?.Visit the ROSILOA website, recently opened in August 2007 at www.rosiloa.com
