OLD PICTURE FRAME RIDDIM produced by ROOF INTERNATIONAL 1995
Old Picture Frame Overview
In 1995, the yard beat was everywhere in dancehall music. This drum-heavy, rolling rhythm gave dancehall its strong energy and made it perfect for the dancefloor. The Old Picture Frame Riddim captured this sound, bringing together some of the top names of the time. Baja Man’s “Pundera” rides the riddim with a catchy flow, showing why he was a crowd favorite in the 90s. Computer Paul, known for his work as a producer and musician on many reggae and dancehall classics, delivers “Version,” a track that highlights his skills in creating powerful instrumentals. Future Trouble, who found success with his 1997 hit “Ganja Spliff,” brings his style to “Own The Man,” adding a bold voice to the mix. Little Hero, who later gained attention for his 2007 album “Revelation,” steps up with “Man A Lion,” a song that shows his strong vocal delivery. Ninjaman, a well-known figure in dancehall with a long list of hits and a career full of clashes and controversies, is featured on “Picture Frame.” The release was produced by ROOF INTERNATIONAL, a label known for launching many dancehall stars in the 1990s. Their productions helped shape the sound of the era and gave a platform to both new and established artists. This drop is a true example of what yard music was about in 1995.
