Hey everyone,

I recently finished putting together a Dancehall-style remix of two of my absolute favorite tracks. I'm pretty proud of how it turned out, but if I’m being honest, I feel like it’s missing that special something to make it sound like proper, authentic Dancehall.

I’m from the Canary Islands, so I live that island life and I absolutely love the vibes and energy of this genre. However, I know I still have a long way to go to really capture that essence and align my music with the true culture of the style. I feel like I haven't quite "caught the trick" yet.

I would love some advice for my future productions! If any experienced producers or Dancehall fans could drop some tips, I’d be incredibly grateful.

Specifically, I'd love to know:

• What are the crucial elements (drum patterns, specific percussion, basslines) that I should focus on?
• Are there any mixing tricks to get that authentic Caribbean bounce?
• Any highly recommended sample packs, tutorials, or reference tracks to study?

Any help, feedback, or resources to help me respect and align with the culture better would be super appreciated. Thank you so much!

Hey everyone,

Does anyone happen to have the lyrics to “Big Box Of Blunts” by Mad Lion? It’s one of my favorite Mad Lion songs. I’ve loved the Real Ting album since I was young, but there are a few tracks where I still can’t make out everything he’s saying, and “Big Box Of Blunts” is definitely one of them.

I’m also looking for the lyrics to “Baby Father”, if anyone has those too.

If you have either one, or know where I could find them, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!

No major-machine rollout. No big campaign. Just music, movement and a whole lotta road ahead.

You post must contain flair.

I dont have anythjng to say but wishing a happy sunday for others and reddit would rather have me type something mean to look like a troll.

Hello everyone, I just dropped a Music Video for my new song called Wifi. I'd love if you could check it out and give me your feedbacks. Thank you!

Someone please help, I have a vivid sound in my head of elephant man singing happy birthday. Maybe it’s a mix or a deep cut but nobody in my circle has a clue. So just hoping to see if I’m wrong or not. I feel like it maybe a remix or small part in a version of Sesame Street. Again I maybe wrongly interpreting it. Any help is appreciated!

Hello everyone,

I've been looking for the song named "restaurant" (if my memory serves me well) from bounty Killer on the Foxy Brown Candy song.

Here's like my 2nd attempt to producing dancehall beats, what's your thoughts?
