Télévision Musicale Antillaise

Télévision indépendante · Caraïbe française

La télévision musicale caribéenne depuis 1999.

Une chaîne musicale linéaire 24h/24 reliant la Caraïbe, l’Afrique et les Amériques — prête pour la distribution TV et IP.

Pourquoi TMA ?

Donner une place télévisuelle aux musiques de nos territoires.

TMA est née en 1999 d’un constat simple : la musique antillaise avait très peu de place à la télévision. Les artistes et les clips de Guadeloupe, de Martinique et plus largement de la Caraïbe disposaient de peu d’espaces qui leur soient réellement consacrés.

Télévision Musicale Antillaise est alors créée avec l’ambition de donner un véritable espace télévisuel à ces musiques, à leurs artistes et à leur culture.

Au fil des années, cette vision s’est élargie avec les circulations musicales de la région. TMA diffuse aujourd’hui les musiques de l’ensemble de la Caraïbe et de son environnement culturel — Caraïbe francophone, anglophone et hispanophone, Amérique latine, Afrique et cultures afro-diasporiques.

Une musique locale peut avoir un public mondial. Depuis 1999, TMA contribue à donner aux musiques et aux artistes de la Caraïbe une exposition qui dépasse leurs territoires d’origine.

Le besoin qui a fait naître TMA était local. Son horizon est devenu mondial.
