Story of Wayne Smith | The DJ That Invented Digital Dancehall (Ragga)

Wayne Smith might not always ring a bell but he was responsible for the phenomenon that we now know as Digital Dancehall or Ragamuffin. The then 19 year old Smith and his keyboardist pal Noel Davey accidentally created the foundations of Ragga with the song Under Mi Sleng Teng in 1985. Ragga would supercede Roots Reggae as the dominant sound in Jamaica and go on to become one of the most influential genres on the planet.
