HEAVEN’S DOOR RIDDIM produced by RASHANCO MUSIC 1991
Heavens Door Overview
Back in 1991, the Heavens Door Riddim brought a fresh roots reggae sound. This riddim had a classic reggae groove, with deep bass and steady drums. It felt like the old foundation riddims from Jamaica’s golden years, but with a new energy for the early 90s. Many fans say it stands out among other reggae instrumentals from that time, which often mixed digital sounds or dancehall beats. Heavens Door Riddim kept things rootsy, real, and soulful. A big reason for this was the work of RASHANCO MUSIC. This producer is known in reggae for putting out solid roots projects and working with respected artists. RASHANCO MUSIC became a favorite for selectors and collectors, and this riddim is one of the label’s most loved works. The set featured strong voices and conscious lyrics. Anthony B, with "Don't Wanna Be," delivered his message with the fire he’s famous for. Anthony B is known for songs like "Fire Pon Rome" and for bringing roots reggae back to the spotlight in the late 90s. Ed Robinson sang "knocking On Heavens Door," giving a heartfelt version of the classic song.
