Choo Choo Riddim – Rays Records 1997
Choo Choo Overview
The rocksteady flow is known for its smooth, steady rhythm and relaxed vibe. In the late 1990s, this sound brought a sense of calm and groove to reggae music. The beat is slower than ska but still lively, with a strong bassline and gentle guitar strumming. This style became a foundation for roots reggae, giving artists space to express emotion and message. In 1997, the rocksteady flow was alive and well. Choo Choo released "Instrumental," a track that highlights the classic rhythm with clean, echoing melodies. The instrumental lets listeners focus on the heartbeat of the music, showing how powerful the riddim can be on its own. Silver Moon & Kirsten teamed up for the song "Choo Choo." Both artists brought their unique voices to the project. Silver Moon is known for their work in the reggae scene, with earlier releases that gained attention from fans and DJs. Kirsten joined in, adding a new layer to the collaboration. Together, they gave the song a fresh energy while respecting the roots sound. Behind these songs, the roots craftsman played a key role. The producer made sure every detail was right, from the drum patterns to the mix of instruments. This careful work helped make the 1997 rocksteady flow a classic moment in reggae history. The timeless sound still connects with listeners today.
