JOURNEYS RIDDIM produced by TECHNIQUES RECORDS 2015

Journeys Overview

TECHNIQUES RECORDS stands as one of reggae’s most respected labels. Since the late 1970s, the label has released many classic riddims and singles, building a strong foundation in Jamaican music. In 2015, TECHNIQUES RECORDS delivered a standout one drop riddim that roots fans still talk about today. The label’s approach kept the sound authentic, blending traditional reggae rhythms with modern touches. On this release, three artists brought their own style and message. Christopher Martin, known for his hit “Cheaters Prayer,” added “Champagne For My Real Friends.” His smooth vocals and heartfelt delivery made the song a highlight. Feluke, a respected singer and percussionist, contributed “Fine Wine.” Feluke was known for his deep connection to African drum traditions and for working with reggae legends like Damian Marley and Third World. His track brought a spiritual feeling to the riddim. Richie Spice, famous for songs like “Earth A Run Red” and the album “In The Streets To Africa,” gave listeners “Soaring In Love.” His voice carried a message of hope and upliftment, fitting perfectly with the conscious sound of the riddim. The producer’s touch was clear throughout. TECHNIQUES RECORDS kept the bassline steady and the drum patterns tight, making the riddim memorable. This one drop base from 2015 stands out for its rootsy feel and strong message. Fans of real reggae still return to this release, praising the mix of culture, message, and classic sound.
