Under Me Sensi Riddim! - feeling Irie

Posted about 1 year ago

Artist:

Barrington Levy, Capleton, Yami Bolo, Sanchez, Buju Banton
Album:

?
Track:
- PLAY
- QUEUE
Various (Under Me Sensi Riddim)

The renowned Studio One recording label (known as Jamaica's Motown) was hugely involved in defining early reggae sound in the 60's and 70's. This sound formed into sub genres such as ska, rocksteady, dub and dancehall. Studio One had a hand in the releases of many talented reggae musicians such as Bob Marley & The Wailors, Alton Ellis, Burning Spear, Lee "Scratch" Perry, and The Skatalites.

This Rhythm feels so good its no wonder so many reggae artists want to work with it. This is a compilation of 5 different versions of the riddim, ahem, rhythm into one badass track. Sure it's long but listen to the end where Buju tears the shit up. This track should rock your body and make you wanna bun it up.

soulrocket says good one, sauce. this is available on 12" on the vp label. the original riddim is "african beat" recorded first by don drummond of studio 1 fame. in fact, it was a rip off of bert kaempfert - afrikaan beat.

Sauce says Good call soulrocket, I just listened to the original on an Amazon page and it was most definitely ripped off. All praise be to the most igh, Bert Kaempfert. Still though, his version could never get me on the dance floor so maybe it all worked out for the best (copyrights are overrated). P.S. Just so there's no confusion: I didn't put this mix together. I downloaded it off limewire a few years ago back when I still used limewire. I wish I had put it together though :)

Marigold says I loved every part of that song accept the part where they go into I Believe I Can Fly. I hate to say it, but that bummed me out. Otherwise I love this song. Thanks! I really need to get to the Studio One comps. As Danny says, keep em coming! We need more reggae posters on Mog. I need to to do another one, it has been a while.

Sauce says Soul, Marigold I know what you mean, but look at the length of the song. It needs some lows somewhere. Even though Yami Bolo is a downer and Sanchez sounds off key I like how they provide some contrast to the end and (somewhat) keep up the groove. Its all opinion anyways :P

Marigold says Opinion is the key. I aggree. I dont expect you to aggree with me. I just felt inspired to throw out my opinion on the track. Whos to say it would not grow on me someday? Believe me, I have been very wrong before.
