We love to explore the instrumental world and are striving to become more knowledgeable authority on raw instrumentals, riddims or dub plates. How do you describe a rhythm in lay terms with little formal musical training? We will explore that one later... Let's just say for now... "There is something about certain hits that everyone feels. Whether it is Tony Matterhorn ‘Dutty wine’ or ‘Busta Rhymes’ touch it that moves everybody."

The underground feel it... the youths in the street feel it but wait! The song is also tearing through the burbs and maybe world-wide. This is the essence of what we are attempting to capture here.

Example:
Here is a small synopsis of how the origins of dancehall reggae music share some similarities with that of hip hop music:

Dancehall djs created up an intriguing and unique situation when multiple artists touch the same riddim. This similar to hip hop freestyling and gives a live and raw feel to many old version records. I have heard an older man call this New York style but it’s really Jamaican dancehall style. I guess that my good man was not around when all the teenagers and young adults stood around on a line waiting to ‘chat’ over the same tune - but it's time for everybody to know this.
