SHOULDER MOVE RIDDIM produced by MIDNIGHT ROCK 1982
Shoulder Move Overview
The Shoulder Move Riddim is making waves again in today’s reggae playlists, bringing a fresh dub sound that blends old and new styles. At the heart of this riddim is a smooth rocksteady flow, but it also mixes in elements from roots reggae and dancehall. This makes the riddim feel both classic and modern, which is why it stands out in current reggae sets. Carlton Livingston brings his soulful voice to the track “Miss Know It All.” Livingston is well known for his hit “100 Weight of Collie Weed,” a song that helped define his career in the 1980s. Jah Thomas, a key figure in dancehall’s early days, adds energy with “Shoulder Move.” Jah Thomas is also famous for his hit “Midnight Rock” and for producing many dancehall artists. Jim Brown’s “Mr Brown” adds a deep, rootsy feel to the riddim. King Rolex delivers “Pass Me The Weed,” bringing a laid-back vibe that fits well with the dub mix. The track “Shoulder Move” by Version highlights the riddim’s instrumental strength, letting the dub engineer shine by adding echo and reverb effects. The producer MIDNIGHT ROCK has a long history in reggae, known for the Midnight Rock label that helped launch many artists’ careers in the 1980s. Their experience ties this project together, making it a strong example of reggae’s collaborative spirit and timeless sound.
