NIGHT CRAWLER RIDDIM produced by SHINES PRODUCTION 1998
Night Crawler Overview
Night Crawler Riddim comes straight from the heart of Jamaica’s dancehall scene. Released in 1998, this bashment rhythm made a big impact at sound clashes and dance parties across the island. The riddim’s heavy bass and fast tempo gave it a special energy that kept crowds moving all night. Some of dancehall’s most exciting artists voiced tracks on Night Crawler Riddim. Goofy, known for his playful style, gave fans “Terry Little Putty Cat.” Goofy is also remembered for his hit single “Fudgie,” which was a chart success in Jamaica. Merciless, famous for his lyrical battles, delivered “Mr. Hart Harden.” Merciless earned respect in the 1990s for clashing big names like Beenie Man and Bounty Killer. Hawkeye, with his unique voice, dropped “U Mash Mi Corn.” Vegas, who later scored international hits like “Heads High,” contributed “Hit Him Back.” Red Rat, whose debut album “Oh, No... It’s Red Rat” brought him fame, gave us “Goody 2 Shoe.” The instrumental version, “Night Crawler Riddim,” let DJs and selectors show off their skills. The mastermind behind the riddim is SHINES PRODUCTION. This producer is known for shaping the sound of late 1990s dancehall and working with many top artists. SHINES PRODUCTION’s work helped bring a fresh sound to the scene, and Night Crawler Riddim is a strong example of their influence. Night Crawler Riddim will always remind fans of the fire and excitement of 1998 dancehall. Its sound and energy still echo in dancehall parties today.
