THE KIKI KIKI RIDDIM produced by ROOM IN THE SKY 2021
The Kiki Kiki Overview
The Kiki Kiki Riddim brings a classic rocksteady flow, with a steady rhythm and warm bass that sets a relaxed mood. This style gives singers and deejays a strong roots base, letting their voices and stories shine. The riddim’s smooth groove is perfect for both heartfelt singing and lively toasting, capturing the spirit of reggae’s golden years. A standout on this collection is George Dekker, known for his song "Nana." Dekker’s long career includes his time as a member of The Pioneers, a group famous for their hit "Long Shot Kick De Bucket." His voice on "Nana" fits perfectly with the riddim’s easy swing. The Inn House Crew, the house band for many ROOM IN THE SKY releases, delivers their own instrumental, "It Sweet Sa," showing their tight musicianship. Their track "The Kiki Kiki Riddim" is the backbone of the project, keeping the vintage reggae feeling alive. Joseph Cotton brings his signature style to "Wedding Dance Fatty Fatty," adding a playful energy. Winston Reedy, known for his work with The Cimarons and his solo hit "Feel the Rhythm," adds soulful vocals. Barry Issacs rounds out the set with "Wanty Wanty," giving a rootsy, conscious message. ROOM IN THE SKY, the label and producer, is known for keeping traditional reggae alive. Based in London, ROOM IN THE SKY has worked with many veteran artists and helped introduce classic sounds to new listeners. Their careful production on The Kiki Kiki Riddim makes this 2021 roots anthology a true echo of reggae’s enduring spirit.
