It all started in the mid 1980's with the
Sleng-Teng riddim, a production by Prince Jammy's.
It was the first digital production and the people
loved it. The Digital Revolution was a fact!
Many people complain about these technologies.
Let's call them preterists: people with a
rather unhealthy love for the past. Drum computers
and programming music would kill creativity, was
the claim.
Well, this podcasts proofs them wrong from the
top to the very last drop.
When you hear Dennis Brown, for example,
singing out from his heart and soul or Frankie
Paul who basically does the same, any claim that
this music has no heart and soul is beyond the
comprehension of the writer of this review.
So let the drum and bass lines of this great
mix of programmed and played material make you
skank heavy while the singers give you food for
thought and love...
