L'histoire du riddim Sleng Teng par Noel Davey

Interview w/ Noel Davey

Qui a créé le Sleng Teng Riddim? Wayne Smith me direz-vous. Eh bien, il s'agit d'un malentedu historique. Noel Davey, qui fait parti du Uprising band, a bel et bien composé ce riddim (ainsi que plusieurs autres) pour King Jammy's. IL se dresse en tant que créateur du digital reggae.
Entrevue avec cet homme après le concert de Julian Marley à Ris Orangis.

Wikipedia : The riddim created by the collaboration between King Jammy and Wayne Smith's was entitled "Under Me Sleng Teng". However, in this case Wayne Smith was the one who had found the computerized sound in Noel Davey's keyboard. Together they were the ones who arranged the riddim, slowed it down, matched it to his key, and rehearsed on it before taking it to Jammys studio. The riddim itself is apparently an attempt to recreate Eddie Cochran's "Somethin' Else". It is a pattern found in the Casio MT-40 home keyboard
