TRIPLE X RIDDIM produced by STUDIO 5000 2014
Triple X Overview
Triple X Riddim came out in 2014 and showed just how deep reggae music can go. Built on the classic one drop rhythm, it was made for sound system culture—those big, booming speakers and parties where the bassline really shakes the ground. The one drop beat is the heart of reggae. It’s a steady, pulsing rhythm that gives every song its groove and makes people want to dance. On this riddim, you can hear the roots of reggae—simple, strong, and full of feeling. The producer behind this project is STUDIO 5000. Known for keeping the roots reggae sound alive, STUDIO 5000 has worked on several respected riddims over the years. The label is famous among reggae collectors and DJs, especially for its focus on classic styles and its no-nonsense approach to production. Triple X Riddim brings together a mix of artists, each adding their own style. Chris Bling lights up the track “Gal Dem A Wine” with energy and catchy hooks. G Warrior & Yaad Bwoy keep things lively on “Amount A Gal,” a song made for the dance. Galaxy P’s “More Gal Worldwide” keeps the party going, while Lukie D’s “No New Friend” brings smooth vocals and a message about loyalty. There’s also “Girls Anthem” from Powerman, Penny & Ninja Kid, a tune full of fun and swagger. Ras Professor shines on “Look Good,” Rollie Fresh brings “Up & Down,” Splaash delivers “You A Mad Mi,” and Stabby Laa comes strong with both “Come Fi Di Wood” and “Spend Wi Money.” Each artist gives the riddim a new twist, but the one drop base keeps everything rooted in reggae tradition. This release is a true celebration of sound system culture and the skills of reggae’s roots craftsmen.
