In 2015, reggae fans heard a strong return to classic roots sounds with the Global Protest Riddim. The foundation rhythm behind this riddim is built on the timeless reggae style that filled sound system dances for decades. The producer, ISLAND LIFE, is known for keeping the authentic reggae sound alive. ISLAND LIFE has worked with respected artists and helped release several roots reggae projects that have found listeners worldwide.
