Listen to rocksteady and early sounds of reggae. A slower tempo, rocksteady reflects the soul of the people, with smooth ballads, rich bass lines, and beautiful instrumentation. The instruments work in sound harmony, with the strings of a guitar playing in unison with the bass. The one drop, which emphasizes the afterbeat (counts 2 and 4 of every measure), was introduced in rocksteady, and although it could be thought of as doubled-up in ska, the one drop became more pronounced in rocksteady and later in reggae. | |
