STALAG RIDDIM produced by JAMMY’S RECORDS 1985

Stalag Overview

The dub cut of the Stalag Riddim brings a deep, relaxed mood to reggae this season. Its sound is smooth and full of echo, with heavy bass and space for each instrument to shine. This style lets the music breathe, giving listeners a true roots reggae feeling. Dean Fraser’s “Stalag Excursion” stands out with soulful saxophone lines. Fraser is well known for his work as a top Jamaican saxophonist, and his touch adds warmth to the riddim. Johnny Osbourne joins in with “What A La La.” Osbourne is famous for his hit “Buddy Bye” and has been a key voice in reggae for decades. Nitty Gritty brings two tracks: “False Alarm” and “Good Morning Teacher.” His unique vocal style always adds a raw, authentic edge. Wayne Smith’s “Come Along” also features on this release. Smith made history in reggae with his song “Under Mi Sleng Teng,” which helped start the digital dancehall era. The foundation of this release comes from the classic Stalag Riddim, produced by JAMMY'S RECORDS. King Jammy, the founder, is known for shaping the sound of dancehall and for producing the legendary “Sleng Teng” riddim. His label continues to influence reggae worldwide. With these artists and this classic riddim, the music is spreading reggae’s roots message to new listeners everywhere.
