Serial Killer Overview
In 1996, dancehall was changing fast. The Serial Killer Riddim mix brought together some of the best voices of that time, blending classic dancehall with sounds from other genres. The selector’s choices made the mix feel fresh and exciting. Frankie Paul’s song “Mileage” stands out with his smooth vocals. Frankie Paul was already famous, known for hits like “Sara” and for his huge influence on reggae and dancehall. His style on “Mileage” brings a soulful touch that matches well with the riddim’s energy. Next, Ricky General’s “Skangadong” adds a rougher, streetwise feel. Ricky General is known for his hit “Wickedest DJ,” and his voice brings power and confidence to the mix. His performance on “Skangadong” fits perfectly with the dancehall beat, giving the mix a strong, lively edge. Simpleton’s “Something To Tell” brings another flavor. Simpleton was known for his hit “Coca Cola Bottle Shape,” and his playful style shines here. His song adds fun and bounce, showing how dancehall can mix with playful lyrics and catchy rhythms. The producer, if known, made sure each artist’s song blended well with the riddim and with each other. The mix’s flow and energy remind listeners of 1996’s dancehall scene. Even today, this selector’s choice brings back the memories and vibes of that special year.
