| | Ragga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Electronic music proliferated rapidly throughout the 1990s, and ragga was no exception: it revolutionized reggae music. | | | Raggamuffin music (usually abbreviated as ragga) is a subgenre of dancehall reggae in which the instrumentation primarily consists of electronic music; sampling often serves a prominent role in raggamuffin music as well. | | | The birth of ragga in Jamaica occurred contemporaneously with the ascension of electronic dance music in the Western world at large. |

| | The Evolution of Ragga (Raggamuffin) Music - ReggaeFusion.com |
| | Ragga music developed from dancehall music in the '80s, a hybrid style featuring a DJ or "sing-jay" half-singing, half-rapping with often bawdy ("slack") themes. | | | This also led to the explosion of the "rhythm album," for which different artists would record their own lyrics and melodies over the same pre-existing rhythm track. | | | Because of the relatively low costs of building synthesized rhythms, ragga became the preferred mode for many Jamaican producers as well, enabling them to turn out thousands of vinyl singles per year, and to craft more adventurous new rhythms instead of simply borrowing them from old rock steady records. |

| | The age of ragga -- the synthesis of Jamaican music and technology -- had begun. | | | A lot of the tracks on here have historical significance -- the creation of new sounds, the breakthrough of ragga in other countries -- but overall, accuracy pales in the face of the fact that this is just great greasy good stuff. | | | Following a fine tradition of borrowing and building from the beat, ragga can be slow or it can be fast, soulful or militant, but it never fails to move. |

| | Herc was one of the most popular DJs in early 70s New York, playing at neighborhood parties (block parties), and he quickly switched from using reggae records to funk, rock and disco, since the New York audience did not particularly like reggae. | | | In Jamaica, dub music has diversified into genres like ragga and dancehall. | | | In 1967, Jamaican immigrants such as DJ Kool Herc brought dub to New York City, where it evolved into hip hop. |
