Timeless Selections Overview
The rocksteady flow of the Timeless Selections Riddim is still remembered today for its smooth and laidback vibes. Listeners who revisit this 2021 compilation often talk about its classic reggae feel, where each track connects seamlessly to the next. This is the kind of riddim that keeps the spirit of old-school reggae alive, blending gentle horn riffs with thoughtful lyrics. The compilation brought together a mix of artists, each adding their own voice and message. Black Stones delivers “Gangster Life,” a song that stands out with its reflective lyrics and steady groove. Colin Burns brings a soulful touch with “Do You Want To Chase,” showing the emotional depth that reggae can offer. Errol Bellot, known for his roots sound and tracks like “Roots Rock Reggae Muzic,” has been respected in the UK reggae scene since the 1980s, with songs like “Babylon” and several collaborations with other reggae veterans. Jah Wade’s “Pearl Before Swine” and Jesse Brade’s “O Father” add more layers of culture and message, each track highlighting personal and social themes. Together, these artists keep the tradition of conscious reggae alive. Behind the music, RASTAHOOD PRODUCTIONS / ROBIN HOOD RECORDS shaped the sound.
