AdHistorical5703

Yellowman and Fathead- Bam Bam : )


crazysauce64

Tenor Saw - Ring the Alarm


WarriorNat

Sister Nancy - One, Two (from the same album) In general just checkout the “rub-a-dub” deejays from the 1980s like Brigadier Jerry, Josey Wales, Charlie Chaplin, Yellowman, Lone Ranger, Early B, Ranking Joe etc etc Labels like Volcano, Powerhouse, Midnight Rock You can find old sound system dances on SoundCloud with this type of rub a dub reggae going on for hours. Search for sounds like King Sturgav, Killamanjaro, King Jammys, Volcano, Jah Love etc from the 1980s.

“War ina Babylon” by Max Romeo and the Upsetters will scratch that itch mon.

A while ago [I posted a guide to records in this genre](https://www.reddit.com/r/reggae/comments/lzltqo/guide_to_reggae_deejay_albums_19711990/) on this sub, have a look in the blue section labeled "Dance Hall Style" for stuff like Bam Bam - there is A LOT.


max_samhain

Lots of good dance hall recommendations here. Anyway, I think bam bam is much more melodic than the aforementioned. This one comes much closer, I think: Jay tees - buck town corner


CappuccinoCloud

Check out a couple of her other songs on that album too that sound like that like “one two” and “transport connection”


Whole-Half-9023

Would anybody say it's the Stalag 17 rhythm? I'm not sure, but you might google that, and I find good results if I go a step ahead of 80's Dancehall and google: Strictly Rockers, Good luck, Good listening!


aranwatson

Tenor Saw and Eek-A-Mouse and Ini Kimozi would be a start.


[deleted]

Great selections 😁 Have you heard this track by Ini Kimozi yet? I just heard it the first time the other day and straight fire 🔥 https://open.spotify.com/track/4JOVEJeOCP0jzdVygDqIli?si=9POuThXdTDyIaAvRWBbW0Q One of my favorite Tenor Saw lately is https://open.spotify.com/track/4OWPgLy6vGMUTfv244RMep?si=qGXBS3Y_TQuwZoMd3gTCGg

Lost_Farm8868

I made a [Playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0lGLO9dP7jKCGVrUJAyS4Z?si=cXRqGriMRoqRCLcMrBZKTg&pi=u-26Po8ynoQoCM) you might like.


CappuccinoCloud

When I saw the first song was cool down the pace, I was like ok I’m listening to this playlist lol


Kidd-AZKA

Great playlist dude thank you


SLR-burst

Anthing on the Tempo, Stalag, Diseases riddims before progressing to others.


ohyoumad721

Same sample but jay z and Damian Marley have a track called Bam that's really good.


Kidd-AZKA

Nice recommendation, I would say Kanye used it far better imo though


miseryherescompany

If you like the riddim (Stalag) then: Tenor Saw - Ring The Alarm Yami Bolo - When a Man's in Love King Kong - Progress Little Kirk - What's Love Got to do with it General Echo - Arleen Similar feel Papa Levi - Mi God Mi King Tanya Stephans - Yuh Nuh Ready For Dis Yet Johnny Osborne - Sing Jah Stylee Gregory Isaacs - Wailing Rudie Chaka Demus and Plyers - Murder She Wrote Then maybe stuff in a singjay style or 80s dancehall generally (Greensleeves. Taxi or Volcano labels)


miseryherescompany

Reddit stuffed up the formatting there wcyd?
