HAVANA SUNSET RIDDIM produced by KIMICHI RECORDS 2012

Havana Sunset Overview

In 2012, dancehall was full of energy and creativity. The Havana Sunset Riddim captured this spirit, blending hardcore deejay cuts with smooth vocals. The journey began in the studio of KIMICHI RECORDS, a label known for sharp production and a fresh approach to bashment riddims. KIMICHI RECORDS had already made a name in the dancehall scene, with their tracks gaining steady streams on digital platforms and respect among selectors. The producer wanted a riddim that felt both powerful and playful. The beat came together with heavy bass and crisp drums, setting the stage for artists to shine. Each performer brought their own style, making the riddim a showcase of talent. Alty B delivered “Secret,” mixing catchy hooks with a confident flow. Alty B is known for his later hit “Nobody Has To Know” with Flexx, but here he showed his early promise. Blak Diamon’s “Diamon Time” added a gritty edge, while Chuxstarr’s “Change Me” gave the riddim a melodic lift. Ebony Royal’s “Baby Love” brought smooth, heartfelt vocals, and Eyesus kept the energy up with “Home Tonight.” Eyesus is respected for his consistent presence in the Canadian dancehall scene. The riddim also featured tracks like Faze’s “Party Hard” and Jah Cube’s “Hot Like A Fyah,” each adding to the bashment flow. When the riddim dropped, it quickly found its way into DJ sets and dancehall parties. Looking back, Havana Sunset Riddim captured the lively, creative energy that defined 2012 dancehall, blending strong beats and diverse voices into a true sound system favorite.
