It's sad that reggae music has come to this! So many modern day sounds playing this heartless soulless noise they call roots, dub ,reggae! REAL roots reggae music was produced in JAMAICA in 70's & 80's. They produced timeless music played by talented musicians & singers, recorded & mixed at proper studios with creative engineers! This is the type of music built for & played on sound system & thus should still be played on the sound system not this poor 'imitation' of reggae music!
To be fair, much of that music was created & recorded in the UK as many of the artists either moved to the UK, or shared their time equally between Jamaica & the UK. The issue for us is that a new generation of Dub aficionados have mixed modern European Electronic Dance Music (EDM) & Techno musical techniques & inspirations with the Jamaican original, which when compared sounds like a very pale & very poor imitation. Agreed, we can't take much of this modern iteration of Dub either, but I can honestly say that many Jamaican derived Sounds Systems have taken note & are trying to return to the original concept & inspiration of Jamaican-Style Reggae music. We also sense a diversion of the genres & what we can see is a clear split between the two. Yootman Promotion will always stay true to the original essence of our music. This doesn't mean constantly playing 70s/80s Steppers, but we will continue to play, promote & encourage a modern iteration of 70s/80s Steppers which remain true to the original Jamaican values which we all had a hand in creating. This Steppers compilation will hopefully give you a sense of our strong feelings on the subject which aren't a million miles away from yours... ruclips.net/video/N1LwMm73NLE/видео.html Jah Bless
