Dream Weaver - Lenky (TRUE instrumental) ~ Various Artists   Album Notes and Credits Notes & Personnel Info Compilation producers: Steven "Lenky" Marsden. The producer responsible for the massive Diwali riddim -- Steven "Lenky" Marsden -- returns with the Dream Weaver riddim. It's not the Gary Wright-sampling track you would have hoped for, but a slight variation on the hypnotic stomp of Diwali with about three-quarters the allure. To be fair Diwali -- which was adapted for Lumidee's big urban hit "Never Leave You (Uh Oooh, Uh Oooh)" -- would be a lot for any producer to follow up, but while other ragga producers garishly dress-up their riddims, Marsden has taken a smart approach by keeping it slick and stark. It lets each singer add their own melody, and there's plenty of room for new instrumentation. The bubbly synth added on the Angel Doolas track adds a brand new sheen to the riddim while Beenie Man bends the beat and adds an infectious melody. The numerous highlights on Riddim Driven: Dream Weaver are a testament to what a singer-minded and talented producer Marsden can be. ~ David Jeffries   Technical Info Release Date : 05/23/2005 Original Release Date : 2004 Catalog ID : 2244 Label : VP Records Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00054645224420    Related Videos Christmas In The Heart : ...
