King Jammy

King Jammy is Jamaican mixer and producer, Lloyd James from Montego Bay.

"One of the last producers from the Golden Age, King Jammy began his musical education as a dub master at King Tubby's recording studio, before going on to build his own sound system.

In the late 1970s Jammy began to release his own productions, including the debut album from Black Uhuru in 1977. He claimed his royal title when he revolutionised reggae with the first 100% digital riddim, Wayne Smith's 'Under Me Sleng Teng', produced in 1985, which many say forged the path to the modern dancehall era."
