FREEDOM ROCKERS RIDDIM produced by HEARTICAL LABEL & BDF 2013
Freedom Rockers Overview
In reggae music, roots riddims are the backbone of sound system culture. In 2013, a special riddim called Freedom Rockers Riddim became a favorite at many reggae nights. The heavy bass and steady drums made it perfect for big speakers and crowded dance floors. This riddim was put together by HEARTICAL LABEL and BDF, two names well-known in the reggae scene. HEARTICAL LABEL, based in France, has released many important reggae projects since the early 2000s, working with both classic and new artists. BDF is respected for producing roots music that stays true to the original Jamaican sound. Freedom Rockers Riddim brought together strong voices. Carlton Livingston, a veteran singer known for his classic song “100 Weight of Collie Weed,” delivered the track “High Horse.” His deep, soulful voice fits perfectly with the riddim’s energy. Another highlight is “Soon Come” by David X Steel Pulse X Hinds. Steel Pulse, the British reggae band, is famous for their Grammy-winning album “Babylon the Bandit.” Their collaboration here added real star power and roots spirit. General Levy, well known for his fast style and the hit “Incredible,” brought a dancehall edge with “Flick Flick.” His lively delivery gave the riddim another layer of excitement. Freedom Rockers Riddim remains closely tied to the reggae history of 2013. The album collection stands out as a foundation for modern roots music, and sound systems still play these tracks to keep the roots tradition alive.
