Kingston Riddim – Magz Records

KINGSTON RIDDIM produced by MAGZ RECORDS 2012

Kingston Overview

For reggae fans who love the classic sound system vibe, the Kingston Riddim release from 2012 is a true highlight. This set stands out for its rocksteady flow, with each track built to move both dance floors and selectors. The riddim’s steady pulse and deep bass echo the days when big speakers and open-air parties ruled the Jamaican nights. Behind this project is MAGZ RECORDS, a label known for pushing roots reggae forward in the 2000s and early 2010s. MAGZ RECORDS has worked with both rising and established artists, and their releases have gained attention on streaming platforms for their authentic sound and quality production. The studio hand here is clear: every track is carefully mixed to keep the live feel, with crisp drums and warm melodies that nod to reggae’s golden era. The artists on this set each bring their own energy. Shel K delivers “Gun Man,” a track that rides the riddim with sharp lyrics and a confident style. Freeky and Singer Jah both take on “All Over Again,” each adding their own twist to the melody. Singer Jah also appears with “Inna Reggae,” bringing his heartfelt voice to the roots sound. Anthony Que, known for his international reggae tours and albums like “Rise Up,” shines on “Can't Get Enough.” Sandy Star’s “Come Over” adds a sweet, inviting touch. Other strong cuts include “Compatible” by Cressendo and “Pull Up” by Chris Hart. This reggae set remains one of the cultural drops of 2012, a must-listen for anyone who loves roots music and sound system culture.
