The rumbling bass line with the soft synth chords blazing out them big box speakers after I'd finished my curry goat and rice. Round about the time I'd be hitting balloons in the sky. From Beres, to Sanchez, to Garnett Silk, Wayne Wonder, Buju Banton… list goes on. Perfect blend of reggae, dancehall and middle of the road ballads.
