Not content with the success of her Recession Special single on the Hindu riddim, up & coming artiste Natalie Storm is reportedly locked away in the studio, dabbling in the world of production as well. Over the past few weeks, she has been fine tuning two riddim projects - a breezy dancehall throwback riddim called Cheese Trix, and another called the Firestorm project - which features musical heavyweights such as Sizzla, Macka Diamond, and Ward 21, as well as relative newcomers such as Cordel Scatta Burrells new deejay find, Rage and Magnum Dancehall Queen Tiki.
The hardest thing about working on your own production is realizing how time consuming it really is. But what I love is the complete, creative freedom to make music to please myself, and I hope it pleases others as well, she said.
She is leaning towards putting out the Cheese Trix riddim as her production debut on her own Maxine Music Label. The decision is based on the early buzz being generated in the streets by a breakout Pot a Bubble song by Mr. Easy.
The Cheese Trix ah go hard, it have a different vibe so far than Firestorm because it has more of an original dancehall feel, and because so much R&B out there in dancehall, were bringing back the good old hardcore dancehall days, Natalie said. Dylan my manager tested the riddim on the Swatch Sound System just to hear how it a beat. It sound a way!! The riddim a go hard!!
The Cheese Trix riddim features other standout tracks such as Tikis Five Cent, Macka Diamonds Man Problem and others from Natalie herself, as well as Charlie Blacks, Rage and Frisco Kid aka Ancient Monarchy.
