GOOD ENOUGH RIDDIM produced by CHAMPAGNE RECORDS 1994
Good Enough Overview
In 1994, reggae was changing, but some rhythms still held onto deep roots sounds. The Good Enough Riddim is one of those foundation rhythms. It brought together the rich, classic reggae feel with a smooth, warm groove that DJs and fans loved. This riddim was a favorite for sound systems, and its steady, soulful beat became a part of reggae history that year. Behind the scenes, the dub engineer played a big part in shaping the sound. By using special mixing techniques, the engineer gave each track a warm, echo-filled quality. This helped the riddim stand out and stay true to its roots style, even as dancehall was becoming more popular. CHAMPAGNE RECORDS released the Good Enough Riddim. The label is known for keeping the vinyl sound alive during the 1990s, a time when digital music was taking over. CHAMPAGNE RECORDS often focused on roots and dancehall, giving artists a platform to shine. The artists on this riddim each brought their own style. Banana Man’s “Good Enough” showed his smooth delivery. Fleshy Ranks performed “Show Mi Dem,” adding his unique voice. Niggah Mikey, known for his hit “Duppy,” gave fans “Ba--Y A Bun Yuh” and “Caan Bun Wi.” Simpleton, famous for “Coca Cola Bottle Shape,” added “Tell Me What You Want.” Together, these tracks made the riddim a true roots classic.
