Compas (sometimes written Compas Direct, konpa direk, konpa, kompa or compa) is a musical genre which is native to Haiti. It contains influences from Merengue music, some jazz elements as well as significant Cuban (Son Cubano) and African rhythms.
Today, every group, every composer of dance music in the Caribbean owes something to Konpa, even Zouk, considering the strong influence of Konpa musicians on Jacob Desvarieux, the major founder of Zouk. .
