LONG DAYS SHORT NIGHTS RIDDIM produced by XTERMINATOR PRODUCTION 2011
Long Days Short Nights Overview
Inside the studio, musicians found a special groove with the Long Days Short Nights Riddim. The rocksteady flow took shape as live instruments blended with a steady drum and bass line. The dub engineer played a big role, shaping the sound with echo and reverb, and making sure the horn riffs stood out. The result was a warm, classic reggae feel that felt both new and timeless. XTERMINATOR PRODUCTION, the label behind this riddim, was founded by the late Philip “Fatis” Burrell. The label is known for supporting conscious reggae and working with many top Jamaican artists over the years. Their productions often focus on uplifting messages and strong musicianship. Jesse Royal’s “Singing The Blues” stands out with his soulful voice and thoughtful lyrics. Jesse Royal is known for his 2017 album “Lily of Da Valley,” which reached number one on the Billboard Reggae Albums chart. Kayla Bliss brings a smooth touch with “Ain'T That Loving You,” showing her sweet vocal style and calm delivery. Sizzla Kalonji’s “Burn Dem Schism” adds fire to the riddim. Sizzla is famous worldwide, with over 70 albums and hits like “Thank You Mama.” Released in 2011, Long Days Short Nights Riddim captured the conscious energy of its time, bringing together talented voices over a classic reggae rhythm.
