Fade Away Riddim (1997) – Opera House Records

Fade Away Riddim – Opera House Records pulls together a short 1997 dancehall set with Buccaneer leading the way on Fade Away and returning alongside Scare Dem Crew on Bad Man Nuh Stray. Opera House was one of the labels that helped shape that late-90s bashment sound, and this cut carries the kind of sharp, high-energy production the imprint became known for. The standout here is the title track itself, with Buccaneer’s bold delivery giving the riddim its identity, while the collab cut adds a tougher crew flavour. Compact and memorable, it’s a two-track release that lands fast and leaves an immediate imprint.
