The “Mission Impossible” riddim heralds the start of the bashment selection with cuts by Bounty Killer and Innocent Crew. There are also specials by roots favourites Jah Cure and Capleton. The session opens, as it quite often seemed to do, on a cultural tip with hits by Sizzla and Luciano revoiced over the ever popular “Stalag”. “Adonai were originally formed in New York in 1995 but it took a move to Jamaica in 1997 before the self proclaimed “sound of the future” burst onto the dancehall scene. An extended live artist section features veterans Dicky Ranking, Peter Metro and the Don Gorgon himself, Ninjaman, recently repatriated to Jamaica from USA.”Īdonai v Cornerstone Belmont Drive In, Tavern, Kingston, 27 th February 1999 “This is Addies on tour in Jamaica and flinging down X amount of specials from artists like Cobra, Shabba, Panhead and Junior Cat. We have started this section to showcase some of the sounds which thrived in the nineties, some of the recordings have live artists mixed in with the bashment, others with pure juggling and dubplate specials.Īddies Savanna La Mar, Westmoreland, 10 th July 1992įeaturing: Ricky General, Dicky Ranking, Peter Metro, Ninjaman, Junior Demus Veteran sounds like Killamanjaro, Metromedia, Stone Love, King Jammy’s and Saxon managed to successfully make the transition and compete with the best, and to this day the dancehall soundclash business is still growing worldwide. The established sounds of the eighties had to adapt or step aside for newcomers like Bodyguard, Bass Odyssey, Addies, Black Cat, Rodigan, Sound Trooper, Mighty Crown to name just a few. In this decade the art of soundclash really came to the fore with all manner of competitions, trophies, and reputations, to be won.

So instead of the artists working on sets they were recruited by a new breed of “music only” sounds who cut one off specials with the performers, adapting the lyrics to hit songs to boost up the name of their own sound. The use of dub plate specials was taking over in Jamaica and juggling was becoming big business. The 1990’s decade was a lean time for “live” artists appearing on sound systems.
