Even though fortunately new riddims come into existence
almost every day, the old ones are revamped with
each new generation of Reggae Music as well.
This is done in a wide variety of ways, some
technically and some instrumentally. One might
sample a loop and base a whole new tune on just
that one loop, others will re-do the old riddim
and yet there is a third group that will do even
other things.
This episode of the "PotCast" (No
Typo there) gives us a wonderful example of such
new skool recordings.
We're introduced to a wide variety of styles
and sounds, which in itself is rather interesting
because many seem to think that contemporary
Reggae all sounds the same because of the digital
technology that is incorporated.
Heavy Skanking!
