'Amore' rhythm inspires delicious mix of love songs

The 'Amore' rhythm is the latest project out of the Donsome Records stables.

The project was produced by Adrian Hanson with Peter 'Shady' Harrison as co-producer.

The 'Amore' rhythm was inspired by the current trend of lover's rock beats impacting the reggae scene, not only locally but also overseas.

In a release, Hanson explained the idea behind the project.

"After producing various rhythms, it became apparent that lovers rock is taking over the world. Shady and I dug deep to produce this project because we felt the artistes would be inspired to write great love songs," Hanson stated.

The project contains a delicious mix of appetising treats from established as well as up-and-coming acts.

Reggae crooner Ginjah contributes Gimmie Your Love and Sizzla is back with Love Connection. Former Digicel Rising Stars winner Brown Shuga sings about her Greatest Love, and chart-topper Nature places emphasis on Woman of My Dreams.

a strategic move

Falling in Love, by Turbulence; Just to Be with You, by British reggae singer Lady Lex; Love Choice, by newcomer Aima Moses; Keep You Warm, by male singjay SK and Simply Girl, by Canada-based reggae crooner Tony Anthony, also get a listing on the project.

Playa, by singer Erasto; Karma by deejay Colton T; and Second Place, by Khago, complete the track list.

According to Hanson, the mix of established acts and newcomers was a strategic move.

'We planned it that way. We wanted to open the doors for the new generation of artistes mastering their craft," said Hanson.

Hanson revealed that the project took a little over a year to complete. This is the latest in a line of productions from the Donsome Records imprint.

The label had previously issued one-drop reggae projects including 'Life Journey', 'Hard Rock', 'Crime Stop' and the 'Mr Brown' rhythms.

The Amore rhythm compilation album will be available on ITunes, Amazon, Emusic and other online stores as of August 21.
