BARBLE-DOVE RIDDIM produced by CONTROL TOWER SQUAD 2011
Barble-Dove Overview
Back in 2011, dancehall DJs loved to drop the Barble-Dove Riddim in their sets. The beat was different from many other dancehall riddims at the time. It had strong horns and a lively bounce, making it stand out from the heavy electronic drops that were popular then. CONTROL TOWER SQUAD produced the riddim. They are known for shaping the sound of modern dancehall and have worked with many artists. Their work on this riddim lets each artist shine, but you can still feel their touch on the mixing board, keeping the energy high. The Barble-Dove Riddim brought together some big names. Ghetto’s "Red Eyes" rides the riddim with a raw, street feel. Gyptain & Jheanel’s "Tell Mi" adds a sweet, catchy hook. Gyptian, famous for his hit "Hold Yuh," delivers "You Are The One," showing his smooth style. Italee & Broso team up for "Fresh," bringing a cool vibe. Krypton & Influence’s "Pre Wid Mi Mind" gives the riddim a thoughtful touch. Other tracks like Little Hero’s "Barble Dove" and Madd Dawg’s "Day Lite" add more flavors. Peashead’s "Hustle" and Q Q’s "Girl You Are" keep the party going, while Singer J’s "My Life" closes things out with feeling. Compared to other 2011 dancehall riddims, Barble-Dove stands out for its collaboration and its live band sound. DJs kept it spinning because it brought real dancehall energy to every party.
