INSTUDIO KING JAMMY

[@davidelliottelliott9888]

I started to collect Jammys cassettes way back in late 1985 and as of today I have over 24 cassettes still in my collection.....86 and 87 was my best collections......Big Dee King .........Bishop ave and Penwood road ....

[@peeba7921]

I have about 150 dances from 1985-1988

[@vsthebest215]

I love king jammy so much, no producer inspires me more. His sound is so street, he is the equivalent to what Barry Gordy was to Motown. His sound captures a time but translates to this era. The true champion.

[@cammoxx]

I watched all 1hr and 37 mins of this interview.....I even met King Jammys in the airport on 27 august love it especially the museum coming thanks Iris and Chin also for keeping this thing alive

[@hopetoncohen1723]

Jah know star mi respect this man down to the ground whey him walk pon..Mi use to go in that small room at 38 St.Lucia Rd .as a likkle boy.Every record that was made in that room The King give mi a copy the only mistake i made in life was that i didn't go into the music industry but i loved it to a extent and up to now am an adult and i still talk about King Jammys sound whereever i go.This is one of the best and truthful interview i have heard on this platform with Irish and Chin not because i have been following King Jammys since he came to St Lucia Road.at that little studio room at Miss Mac and Baba John place but because everything the king say is the truth..I could tell you how much sound King Jammy Superpower killed when and where and what tune or which DJ killed them.Respect to the King a living Legend.

Many people talk about the music heritage of Trench Town, Kingston 12. However, Waterhouse Kingston 11 has an outstanding reputation as a source of inspiration and foundation for Reggae Music. Waterhouse is my town, Binns Rd to the world.

[@blairboyd4982]

The best song system that played in Jamaica and Waterhouse, is King Tubbys. His sound was crowned by the people, not liked someone just called Jammys King. I remembered when Jammys a played a little house sound, living near to St,Patrick Primary school in those. I been living in Waterhouse from in 1960s, and only King Tubbys was running the place as the leading sound. You useto have one and two little house sound system in Waterhouse in those days, I know a little soul set.Useto named Stylistic on Huston Ave,at that Jammys was around. King Tubbys who started to make dubplates,Jammy learned trade by King Tubbys. I know that Jammys and King Tubbys did have a big problem after a while, King Tubbys was the best in .I was telling my cousins that I know when Jammys living on Drumalie Ave,before she checked.Duke Reid was long before Jamaica, Duke Hamilton, there was a lot of sound long before Jammys. My aunt living in Waterhouse from 1951,and went there in 1960s. I know all the Black Uruh group from boys days, all the singers he is talking about I know all of them. I know him before him moved to St Lucia Road ,I useto go down there. I know Wayne Smith from a boy,I been to several anniversary at his studio.

Henry Junjo Lawes created dancehall riddim with those early 1980s riddims...I think Barrington Levy was the first true dancehall artist. Dancehall started way way way before 1985..

[@garyfreckleton5161]

Long lives the King and the government still not investing in our reggae music look what sounds system bring to Jamaican what would happen to all these artists if it wasn't for sounds system look everywhere people live reggae music we never love what we got till someone talk it away

I did some recordings at Harry J. This was a very important studio at Roosevelt Ave. my engineer was Sylvan Morris. He gave me the nickname “Crash Cymbal.” The voice booth had a wood floor which produced a mysteriously special sound.

Disagree. Sir Coxsone Dodd is the GREATEST producer/engineer Jamaica has ever seen. People like Jammys and many others owe their success to Dodd.

[@obrowe]

There is a lot of history that is not being told. For example, the first official dub plate was made by Coxsone Downbeat in 1958 (Owen Grey - On The Beach). Unofficially, dancehall was the first (credit to the Big 3 - Duke Reid The Trojan, King Edwards The Giant & Coxsone Downbeat). Competition amongst the big 3 led to many innovations in Jamaica's music, including the formation of Reggae. Not much credit is given to the effort of early sound system operators and their pioneering effort (1940s - 60s). The legacy of people like Hedley Jones (Jamaica's first amp builder, built Studio 1, JFM President), Lloyd Daley (electrical engineer and Matador Sound System), Fred Stanford (studio engineer and US migrant - brought Jamaican Sound System culture to Brooklyn in 1962). Credit must be given, where credit is due.

[@DJKOOLBREEZE]

Good reasoning wid chin dem pan sound chat radio bout the dancehall genre. Here is the answer to ur question. If u dj on a reggae beat is it considered dancehall? YES. because dancehall consist of 2 primary elements. The beat and the dialect. So using ur example of celine dion song. If u dj on that beat it wud be dancehall. However not purely because the beat pattern is not a dancehall beat. Like justin beiber and drake, when they sing or rap on the dancehall beat pattern, it is dancehall. But they cannot master the dialect to steal the whole thing. U will not get pure dancehall without those two elements. Wen u djed on the kendrick song, u add the dialect to a hip hop beat. But it was still considered a dancehall verse. What is dancehall?Dancehall is a genre with the “budum bap bum” beat pattern combined with the jamaican dialect as the main elements. Add some over the edge and gritty lyrics. Dapper style dressingthe and you will have the genre in its purest form. One Love.

[@DJKOOLBREEZE]

Jammys mentioned that since 1985 there is been no change to the music. I want to add that if you listen carefully to the music, in the early 2000 don carleone, stephen magregor and vybz kartel change the sound that was there before. Hence why we have every artiste now sounding like kartel. I personally think there should be a change in the name of the genre after the 2000 because of the drastic change in the beat and also the content more so the pushing of the boundry to no boundries. Call the genre vybz kartel

[@toekneebadone]

lol kartel join dancehall music he never change it and its still call dancehall and it was bounty killer who bought kartel too dancehall

[@JackRubyish]

Wayne Smith DIDN'T create Sleng Teng. Noel Davey created it on Casio keyboard called MT40. It's a PRESET SETTING in the keyboard

[@shan5445]

Wayne smith and his friend heard it on the casio, they lost it then got one of the brothers to find it when they did they sent it to King Jammys then they built the riddim and Wayne Smith Created the song Under me sleng teng.

[@JackRubyish]

What song came first ? Under Me Sleng Teng by Wayne Smith voiced @ Jammys or Under Me Fat Ting by Anthony Red Rose voiced @ King Tubbys ? Both studios in Waterhouse & Both riddims were played by Noel Davey. Sleng Teng is a preset in the Casio MT40 Keyboard. All Noel Davey had to do play the chords over the preset. Yes Wayne Smith helped Noel to FIND back the preset & suggested they both go down to Jammys with it & Jammys simply SLOWED down the tempo which is the knob above the fill in button & added synth percussion. The drum roll is created when you press the Synchro/fill on the keyboard. I have that same Casio keyboard here in my room right now. Everything was recorded down to quarter inch at Jammys because he never had a 2 inch set up there. More props & credit should've been given to Noel Davey as NONE was given to him on the Greensleeves label who pressed & distributed THAT record featuring Dance Gate by Micheal Buckley on the flip side.

[@zigedub2]

Wayne Simths Under me sleng teng was first then about a month later Anthony Red Rose voice under me fat ting
