BANDIT RIDDIM produced by LYNX PRODUCTIONS 1998
Bandit Overview
In 1998, the Bandit Riddim became a favorite for selectors and dancehall fans. The project stood out because of its strong bashment energy and the skilled work behind the scenes. LYNX PRODUCTIONS, known for their sharp production style, handled the riddim. The studio was already building a name in the late 1990s for crisp, energetic beats that worked well in the dancehall. Their attention to detail made each track sound lively and ready for the dance. The recording process for Bandit Riddim focused on keeping the rhythms tight and the sound quality high. LYNX PRODUCTIONS used modern equipment of the time and worked closely with the artists to capture the right vibe. This careful approach helped the riddim stand out on sound systems across Jamaica and beyond. Chico brought fire to the project with "Gash Like Fire." His delivery matched the riddim’s raw power, making the track a staple in dancehall sessions. Lexxus, who would later score a major hit with "Full Hundred" in 2001, gave a memorable performance on "Nuff Gal A Try Quality." His unique flow added to the bashment feel. Madd Anju’s "Only Fi Di Money" kept the energy going, showing his knack for catchy hooks and witty lyrics. TOK, a group known for their harmonies and later international hits like "Footprints," delivered "Young Gal We Seek," adding a smooth, youthful touch. Together, these artists shaped the bashment flow that kept dancehall alive in 1998.
