Spanish Fly Overview

If you love reggae, you might also enjoy the joyful energy of soca music, especially during carnival season. In 2012, the Spanish Fly Riddim became a favorite carnival soundtrack. This riddim was produced by FRYKTION / PRECISION PRODUCTIONS, a well-known team in the soca world. Precision Productions is respected for working with many top soca artists and helping to shape the sound of modern soca across the Caribbean. The Spanish Fly Riddim brought together strong voices. Problem Child’s “Life Of The Party” is a true celebration song, perfect for any fete. Problem Child is known for his catchy hooks and has made a big impact on the soca scene with hits like “Party Animal.” Daneel’s “I Love The Way” shows off smooth vocals and a sweet melody. Patrice Roberts, with “A Little Wine,” adds her signature style. Patrice is famous for her solo work and her long-time collaborations with Machel Montano, one of soca’s biggest stars. Ricardo Drue’s “Get To Know You” rounds out the lineup, adding more romance to the carnival vibe. Compared to other carnival soundtracks from 2012, the Spanish Fly Riddim stands out. Many riddims of the time used heavy electronic beats, but this one kept a strong coastline groove, making it feel fresh and connected to the roots of soca. The fete composer’s role was to create a rhythm that could unite all these artists, and FRYKTION / PRECISION PRODUCTIONS succeeded.
