BE THANKFUL RIDDIM produced by WORLD BEAT MUSIC & SKINNY BWOY JAMAICA 2013
Be Thankful Overview
The dub cut of the Be Thankful Riddim brings a deep, classic reggae feeling. The rhythm is steady and hypnotic, with echoing drums and rolling bass that create a meditative mood. The dub engineer uses reverb and delay to stretch out the sounds, letting each instrument breathe. This style follows the old-school Jamaican dub tradition, where the music becomes a journey through space and time. On this riddim, several artists shine with their own unique songs. Sadiki delivers “Turn Up” with smooth vocals, adding energy to the laid-back beat. Sadiki is known for his 2011 album “Jah Is The Only King,” which received positive reviews in reggae circles. Colin Roach brings his classic voice to “On The Outside Looking In,” showing the skill that made him a familiar name in Jamaican music since the late 1980s. Bryan Art’s “One Little Kiss” stands out with its gentle melody. Bryan Art is recognized for his songwriting and was once the lead guitarist for the Firehouse Crew, a respected reggae band. Likkle Shanx’s “Jah Is By My Side” adds a spiritual touch, while Helen Rogers gives a soulful performance on “Just Be Thankful.” Each artist uses the riddim’s smooth groove to express their own style. The dub engineer plays a key role, stripping back the vocals and highlighting the riddim’s heart. WORLD BEAT MUSIC and SKINNY BWOY JAMAICA produced this release. SKINNY BWOY JAMAICA, founded by Sadiki, is known for supporting modern roots reggae and has released several acclaimed projects. Fans still return to this dub cut as a roots memory of 2013, celebrating its timeless sound.
