ARMADA RIDDIM produced by BACK2LIFE RECORDS 2013
Armada Overview
In 2013, reggae was mixing old sounds with new energy. This was the time when dub music, with its deep bass and echo sounds, was coming back strong. The Armada Riddim, a compilation released that year, showed how rich and creative reggae could be. The dub cut from this project is still remembered for its cool, echoing style that brought people together. The producer behind this release was BACK2LIFE RECORDS. This label is known for supporting reggae and dancehall artists and helping to bring new music to listeners worldwide. BACK2LIFE RECORDS has built a name for itself by putting out fresh riddims and working with both new and experienced artists. The compilation brought together several talented names. General Levy, a well-known figure in UK reggae, is famous for the hit “Incredible,” a song that charted in the UK in the 1990s. On this project, he performed “Spread Love,” adding his energetic style to the riddim. Hya P, another respected artist, contributed “Dun Dem,” showing his talent for catchy melodies and strong lyrics. One Famous delivered “Cant Stop Me,” bringing determination and spirit to the mix. Sparky and Leila Rose teamed up for “Rise And Fall Feat - Leila Rose,” while Leila Rose also featured on the same track. Their voices worked well together, adding a softer touch to the heavy bass lines. Each artist brought their own flavor, making the compilation stand out. The dub cut from this release is a true cultural piece from 2013, showing reggae’s power to unite and inspire.
