THAI STICK RIDDIM produced by EASY STAR RECORDS 2001
Thai Stick Overview
In 2001, reggae music was exploring new sounds while holding on to its roots. The Thai Stick Riddim is a good example of this balance. The instrumental is built on a classic reggae foundation, with retro layers that give it a timeless feel. This style was popular in the early 2000s, as artists and producers respected the old-school sound but wanted to keep it fresh for new listeners. The arrangement of the riddim shows a deep understanding of reggae’s culture. The arranger blends traditional elements with modern touches, making the music appealing to both longtime fans and newcomers. The steady rhythm and melodic flow are true to reggae’s roots, but there’s also a touch of innovation. Easy Star Records produced this release.
