Turntable Overview
In 2011, the dancehall scene was full of energy, and the yard beat from Veteran Production’s Turnetable Riddim was at the center of it all. This riddim was played often at street dances, giving parties a powerful and lively sound. The beat stood out with its catchy rhythm and sharp drum patterns, making it different from many other dancehall tracks of the time, which often used heavier bass or digital effects. The Turnetable Riddim kept things simple but strong, focusing on driving the dance floor. Artists like Dycr, known for "A Fire," brought a unique vocal style that matched the riddim’s energy. Jah Clarety’s "Watch Yuh Friends" added a thoughtful message, while Polly Famous, with "Dem Know," gave the riddim a confident vibe. Powerman, who once had success with songs like "Gal A Wine," delivered "Flames And Fire," showing his lasting presence in dancehall. Quentch’s "Life Goes On" rounded out the project with a reflective touch. Behind the scenes, the studio hand played a big part, making sure every detail of the riddim was sharp and clean. Veteran Production, known for their work on the Veteran Production label, has helped shape the sound of modern dancehall with projects like this.
