RAS RIDDIM produced by RIDDIMS.CO 2015
Ras Overview
The rocksteady flow is a special part of reggae history. It started in Jamaica in the late 1960s and is known for its slow, steady beat and deep bass. Even in 2015, that classic sound still inspired new reggae music. One compilation that stands out from that time brought together artists who respect the old style but also add something new. Dadda Yute’s “Sweet Reggae Music” is a good example. Dadda Yute is known for his positive lyrics and roots reggae style. His music fits well with the classic riddim, and “Sweet Reggae Music” brings a warm, laid-back feeling. Rob Symeonn’s “Old Time Something” is another highlight. Rob Symeonn has been active since the 1990s and is respected for his roots reggae sound. His album “Indigenous” helped him reach reggae fans around the world. Fikir Amlak’s “Call On Jah” adds a spiritual touch. Fikir Amlak often works with other roots reggae musicians and is known for his conscious lyrics. Sky I - Jah Is Love appears on “Triniti Ft. Sky I - Jah Is Love,” and Biblical delivers “Little More Loving.” Each artist brings their own style, but all stay true to the rocksteady roots. The producer behind the riddim is RIDDIMS.CO. This label has produced several reggae and dancehall projects, helping new artists find an audience. Their work has been streamed by reggae fans worldwide. Songs like “Bad News” by Inites and “Rainbow After Rain” by Irie Bear Ft.
