Remedy Riddim – Music Associate 1999

Remedy Overview

In 1999, the Remedy Riddim became a favorite in reggae sound system culture. Sound systems are a big part of Jamaican music, bringing people together to enjoy heavy bass and catchy rhythms. Remedy Riddim fit right in, with its deep basslines and classic reggae feel, but with a modern twist for the time. The roots craftsman behind the riddim built a foundation that DJs loved to play at dances and on the radio. The riddim’s steady groove gave each artist space to shine and let the crowd feel the music’s energy. Echo Minott was one of the artists featured, bringing his song "Hum Bye Yah Yah" to the set. Echo Minott is well known in reggae for his hit “Lazy Body” and has worked with many top producers over the years. On Remedy Riddim, his smooth delivery matched the rootsy vibe. Pinchers, another reggae star, added "Who's That Girl" to the project. Pinchers is famous for his 1986 classic “Bandelero,” a song that became a dancehall anthem. His style on Remedy Riddim was mellow, fitting perfectly with the riddim’s flow. Silver Cat joined with "Gal Dem Remedy," adding his own flavor to the set. Each artist used the riddim’s strong foundation to connect with listeners, making Remedy Riddim a key part of 1999’s roots playlists and sound system sessions.
