Selectors, who are key DJs in reggae culture, helped spread the riddim across dances and radio, giving it a strong presence in the reggae scene.

The label is known for working with top musicians and for its careful approach in the studio, often using live instruments to capture the real roots vibe. The recording process for Damage Control Riddim focused on live sessions, which brought a warm, organic feel to the tracks. This method allowed the artists to connect deeply with the music, making each song unique.
