In 2009, the Matches Lane Riddim stood out as a strong example of roots reggae connecting modern artists with classic reggae flow. The riddim’s arrangement brought together rich instrumental layers, using live drums, bass, and guitar to create an authentic roots sound. The arranger behind the music paid close attention to detail, making sure each part fit well together and supported the artists’ vocals.
