PURSUE RIDDIM produced by CREATIVE NOIZE RECORDS 2011
Pursue Overview
The one drop base has always been at the center of reggae music, giving the genre its signature pulse. In 2011, this style continued to shape the sound of reggae, blending tradition with modern energy. The one drop rhythm, with its strong emphasis on the third beat, created a foundation for both roots and contemporary artists. CREATIVE NOIZE RECORDS played a key role in bringing this sound to new listeners. Known for their attention to detail and fresh production, the label helped bridge classic reggae with current trends. Their work often highlights the natural echoes and warmth of dub, adding depth to each track. The "Pursue Riddim" release featured several talented performers. Cecile, a respected voice in reggae and dancehall, brought her song "Gwaan Live Life" to the project. She is well known for her hit "Can You Do the Work" with Sean Paul, which reached international audiences. Queen Ifrica, with "Pot Still Haffi Bubble," added her powerful vocals and conscious lyrics. She is celebrated for her album "Climb," which topped Billboard’s Reggae Albums chart in 2017. Shema contributed "Never Love Again," offering a soulful take. Tony Rebel, a veteran of the scene, delivered "Dont Fret Too Much." The collection included a "Version" track, titled "Pursue Riddim," showcasing the instrumental side. This release captured the heart of reggae’s 2011 sound, blending strong roots with fresh voices.
