Walk Wide Overview
The Walk Wide Riddim, released in 2013, is a roots reggae instrumental that stands out for its conscious and soulful sound. While many reggae riddims from that era leaned towards dancehall or digital influences, Walk Wide Riddim kept a classic roots feeling. Its live horns and deep bass lines remind listeners of the golden age of reggae, but with a modern touch. The producer behind this riddim is CONSELECTOR SOUND. Known for his attention to detail and clear horn arrangements, CONSELECTOR SOUND has worked with several respected artists and is recognized for his work on the Selector’s Choice label. His productions are often praised for their quality and roots authenticity. Several artists made memorable tracks on the Walk Wide Riddim. Darryl D Blackman’s “Somehow” is a highlight, showing his smooth vocal style. Dr Olugander’s “Your Beautiful Smile” brings positive energy, and he is already known for his long career in roots reggae, especially in The Gambia. Mariama’s “Sun & Moonlight” adds a gentle and uplifting vibe. Mex Diego delivers “Hoy Me Va Bien,” bringing Spanish lyrics to the riddim, while Niceone’s “Need More Loving” keeps things mellow and heartfelt. Compared to other roots projects from 2013, Walk Wide Riddim is more focused on live instruments and message-driven lyrics. Many other riddims of the time used more digital sounds, but this one stayed true to the roots tradition. Fans still play it today as a memory of roots reggae’s spirit in 2013.
