SOUNDCLASH – JAMMY’S RECORDS 1989
Soundclash – Jammys Records Overview
The bashment arranger behind this collection brings a strong and classic dancehall sound. The riddim is shaped by the well-known Jammys Records, a label famous for its deep influence on dancehall from the 1980s to today. King Jammy, the producer, is known for helping to create the digital dancehall era with his work on the legendary "Sleng Teng" riddim. This collection features top artists who have helped shape the dancehall scene. Anthony Malvo delivers "Test Sound Boy," adding his smooth voice and energy. Brian & Tony Gold, known for their hit "Compliments of Your Kiss" with Red Dragon, bring harmony and power to "Pass The Dubplate." Bunny General steps up with "Must Defeat," showing his skill as a deejay. Chaka Demus, famous for his later international success with Pliers on songs like "Murder She Wrote," gives us "Bad Sound Man" here. Daddy Lizard, a respected name in the 1980s and 1990s dancehall, brings his unique style to "We Run The Border." Other strong tracks include "My Sound A Say One" by Johnny Osbourne, "Sound A Sound" by Johnny P, and "King Champion" by King Everald. Mikey Melody, Pad Anthony, and others add more layers with their own songs. This dancehall collection is now the go-to anthem for selectors. Its energy and classic style keep it at the heart of dancehall today.
