Maybach riddim is pretty great: a skank-like groove a la Barbershop or Wanted, *plus* the door-slam sound from "Grindin". Vybz's "Remedy" is pretty funny to boot.

Passa Passa rhythm! sort of ragga-metal

Not sure if this is an old one or new. Also there seems to be some controversy about the right to use this particular name.

People should take me up on that Maybach tip - it's great! - but instead of downloading Vybz's "Remedy" first grab TOK's "Sex on my Mind", which deserves to be a huge R&B crossover hit. Sparse riddims like this are *so much better* for pop tunes than eg. the latest slice of Vendetta kraziness.

you're right - it's a bloody CHARLESTON! makes me think of flappers!

anyone reckon we should start a new one of these threads as this one's getting stupid big now and even taking a while to load up on broadband?

Go for it. I'll lock this one and redirect it once you've started a new one.

Job done, can you put a link back to this one from the new one, too, Ned? Coz there's some good info on here, still.
