COAL RIDDIM produced by ARROWS RECORDS 2001
Fire Coal Overview
The dub cut of the Fire Coal Riddim from 2001 is still respected by reggae fans today. In the early 2000s, dub versions were an important part of Jamaican sound system culture. DJs and selectors loved to play these versions because they let the music breathe and gave singers space to shine. The dub cut of this riddim became a foundation for many roots reggae sessions, and its influence can still be heard. The music arranger played a key role in shaping the sound of the riddim. By focusing on deep bass, warm keys, and steady drums, the arranger created a groove that was both spiritual and uplifting. This style made the riddim stand out and gave each artist a strong base to deliver their message. ARROWS RECORDS produced the Fire Coal Riddim. The label is well-known in Jamaica, especially for its work in the late 1990s and early 2000s. ARROWS RECORDS has released many popular riddims and singles, and their studio in Kingston was a favorite spot for many artists. The label helped bring together top singers and musicians for this project. On Fire Coal Riddim, Luciano delivers "Enough Love," a song that matches his reputation for conscious lyrics and soulful singing.
