Summer Shade Overview
In 2015, dancehall was searching for new energy, and the Summer Shade Riddim sound system cut arrived at just the right moment. The tape blended hardcore deejay styles with smooth, melodic vocals, capturing the spirit of the year’s dancehall scene. The riddim’s raw beats and catchy hooks made it a favorite for both parties and playlists, showing how dancehall could sound fresh while keeping its roots. Behind the scenes, the sound engineer played a big part in shaping the release. Their careful mixing balanced the heavy bass and crisp highs, giving each artist room to stand out. The engineer’s work helped the riddim sound powerful on any sound system, a key to its success. OUTTA SPACE RECORDS produced the release, known for pushing modern dancehall while respecting its traditions.

Danjay’s “Summer Time Weekend” offered a laid-back, party-ready anthem; Danjay is also known for his earlier hit “Weekend Flex,” which made waves in local charts.
