I am an Amazon Warrior but lawd this song got me dancing

Suits on Fire? Why are the suits on fire?

Get the fire extinguisher! Quick he's on fire!

Under brilliant sunshine and filled with unstoppable passion the diverse cultures of many continents flow freely within the heart of St. Lucia. From such diversity comes a strength and desire to triumph that could never be stifled. This is best seen in two vital points of unity for this magnificent island.

Cricket and Zouk.

They were both birthed from the undeniable rebellion grown in the hearts of our ancestors.

Zouk combines pulsating African rhythms derived from the percussive soul of the vast continent with more recent western influences of Jazz, Blues, and Electronica, to create a music that builds a free party atmosphere and energy, which are impossible to quell.

Meanwhile, Cricket was brought to the island by colonists, but was perfected by islanders as they merged the natural strength and grace of their forefathers with these foreign rules of play to become fearsome giants in a game that is now loved the world over.

On Tuesday 6th August, when the lights go up in the Beausejour Stadium these two vibrant elements will be combined, as glorious Cricket will be fueled by Zouk rhythms and percussion to create West Indian history in the first ever Caribbean Premier League.

This assuredly momentous occasion has been embodied in the pulsating theme song, “Zouks On Fire”, sung by St. Lucia’s own Sir Lancealot, for the aptly named St. Lucia Zouks, led by Team Captain Darren Sammy.

The infectious song is sure to have the crowds cheering and singing along, encouraging the talented cricketers to take the grounds fired up and ready to charge ahead.

And as the conch shells signal the many 6’s and 4’s storming the field of play in this unique display of Carnival Cricket, St. Lucia’s heart and soul, heritage and culture, will be melded as fiercely together as the St. Lucia Zouks fans to its victorious players.

Zouks on Fire (St. Lucia Zouks Theme Song for CPL ) - Sir Lancealot

Precision Productions, is a young in age but old in knowledge music production team based in San Fernando, Trinidad and Tobago, which has collectively amassed just about 20 years in studio time and work experience .
The company’s resume reads as a who’s who in the local, regional, and international musical arenas. From Grammy award winner, Chaka Khan, celebrated regional artists Machel Montano and Tessanne Chin, to R&B superstars Carl Thomas and Toni Braxton, the Precision team has garnered work experience in Trinidad, Jamaica, New York, and Los Angeles.
In addition, their productions have won them multiple prestigious International Carnival awards and at times a top three sweep in competitions in Trinidad, Grenada, St. Lucia, Antigua, and St. Kitts/Nevis.
For the young entrepreneurs, 2012 undeniably stood out as a benchmark year, as their music practically swept the International Soca Awards with 11 nominations, and 6 outright wins. This was along with their music productions attaining 6 unique placements on MTV’s The Real World and Road Rules, two very popular television series which are aired worldwide.
With Precision’s present growth and influence in the Soca industry it would be easy to overlook their incredible abilities in other genres of music, as well as in other music-based industries. 
However, the company has taken its dynamic energy and relentless drive into multiple genres, such as Calypso, Reggae, R&B, Gospel, Rap, Hip Hop, Pop, Chutney-Soca, and Dance music. 
It has also gained commercial and corporate success with innovative advertising campaigns for clients such as local communications conglomerate bmobile, regional communications and media giant Lime, and the internationally renowned brand Coca Cola.
These endeavours have synced quite well with Precision’s budding merchandizing and event management business ventures as well as its now thriving publishing arm.
