DEMBOW RIDDIM produced by SACKAZ PRODUCTIONS 2012
Dembow Overview
In 2012, dancehall selectors were always looking for the next big riddim to light up their sessions. The selector’s choice built on the energy of the Dembow Riddim, giving DJs a fresh set of tracks that stood out from other yard session tapes of the era. While many tapes had a predictable sound, this one brought a mix of artists and styles that kept dancehall crowds moving. Bunji Garlin’s “No Time Fi Badmind” delivered a message of positivity with a strong, clear flow. Vybz Kartel appeared twice, with “Party Me Say” setting the vibe for celebration and “Slow Motion” showing his skill for catchy hooks. Cham And O brought two versions of “Tun Up” (Radio and Raw), letting selectors choose the right mood for their audience. Super Cat And Shabba Ranks teamed up for “Girls Town,” a track that brought together two legends with real chemistry. Thing And Psycho Tanbad’s “Bonify” (Radio and Raw) added a raw, streetwise energy, while Bounty Killer And Serani’s “Badmind Shut The Fuck Up” (Radio and Raw) addressed real issues in the dancehall scene with direct lyrics and a strong beat. SACKAZ PRODUCTIONS, the producer behind this riddim, is known for blending classic dancehall sounds with modern twists. Their use of horn riffs and tight drum patterns helped create a riddim that was both familiar and new. SACKAZ PRODUCTIONS has built a reputation for supporting both established and rising artists, making their releases favorites among selectors. This selector’s choice brought new fire to dancehall nights and remains a key part of dancehall history, standing out from other tapes of its time with its strong artist lineup and innovative production.
