Roots Tonic Riddim

After the successful debut with the Leader riddim in January 2004, it became time for chapter two in the Hi-Score Music saga.

The project was called Roots Tonic. Laid down by Jamaica’s foremost session band, Fire House Crew. This is a deep and heavy live recorded riddim. Cuts from artists like Luciano, Junior Kelly and Anthony B contributes to the Hi-Score trademark; songs with meaning instead of hype and nonsense lyrics. It also features some young artists with great potential.

Leader Riddim

This riddim from the fresh Swedish based label Hi-Score Music has classic feeling to it that brings back memories from the late 80’s and early 90’s, yet with a slightly new twist.

Live horns add flavour to the digital backdrop. Believe it or not but this riddim with all its warmth and flavour originates from the dark and cold north.

A whole heap of name brand artists along with some up-and-coming ones in a mix with a little something for everyone, spanning from reality tunes to the sweetest love songs.
