NEW FORM RIDDIM produced by GOLDMIND PRODUCTIONS 2013
New Form Overview
In 2013, a fresh energy moved through reggae when the roots riddim came to life under GOLDMIND PRODUCTIONS. The journey began in a small Kingston studio, where the studio hand carefully shaped each drum and guitar sound. The team wanted something real—a riddim that felt both classic and new, with conscious lyrics and live instruments. GOLDMIND PRODUCTIONS, known for supporting roots reggae and uplifting voices, led the project. The label had already built a reputation for quality releases and for working with respected artists in the scene. For the roots riddim, the producer invited a mix of established and rising talent. Natty King, celebrated for his hit "No Guns To Town," brought his strong voice and message to "Fake Friends." His track stood out for its honest lyrics about loyalty and trust. Ras Oneilly followed with "Love & Lies," adding a personal touch to the riddim with his soulful delivery. Zaza Bella, known for her empowering songs, contributed "Children Are The Future," a song that called for hope and unity among the youth. Iyahmedz stepped in with "Straight Love," offering a smooth, heartfelt performance. Jah Defender, who has made a name with songs of faith and resilience, added "Jah Is Always There," reminding listeners of spiritual strength. The riddim’s release was met with praise from reggae fans and selectors alike. Each artist brought their own style, but together they created a project remembered as a cultural work of 2013. The roots riddim still stands as a symbol of conscious reggae and creative collaboration.
