Stampede Overview
The Stampede Riddim stands out as a classic yard beat from Jamaica in 1997. This rhythm was shaped by the talented team at STONE LOVE MOVEMENT, a legendary sound system and production crew. Founded by Winston "Wee Pow" Powell in 1972, STONE LOVE MOVEMENT became famous for their high-quality productions and for helping break many dancehall stars. Their work on the Stampede Riddim showed their skill in blending hard-hitting drums with catchy horn lines, creating a groove that was both tough and fun. The recording process at STONE LOVE MOVEMENT’s studio focused on clear, punchy sound. Producers paid close attention to every detail, from the tight bass to the crisp snares. This careful approach made the riddim perfect for both parties and radio play. Scare Dem Crew brought energy to the track "Set It Off," using their signature group style to hype up the dance. Bounty Killa & Frisco Kid teamed up on "Good Girls," mixing Bounty Killer’s commanding voice with Frisco Kid’s smooth flow. Bounty Killer, known for his influential albums like "My Xperience" and hits such as "Look," added his own solo cut "Irrelevant Ryhme," showing why he is one of dancehall’s most respected voices. Captain Barkley & Angel Doolas delivered "Girlie Girlie," adding a playful twist to the riddim, while Merciless, famous for his 1994 hit "Len Out Mi Mercy," contributed "Whoodini." Each artist brought their own style, helping the Stampede Riddim become a key part of dancehall’s sound in 1997.
