If you're into Caribbean music, graphic design, or the history of Los Angeles, you'll love this app. Ska is a precursor to reggae; its posters are mostly dark in tone but full of wild colors and inventive imagery. The app interface is crisp and easy to navigate, and the developer seems to respond quickly to suggestions.
