How is good music being created? That's the question, the documentary web series Studio Chronicles follows. In its 5 episodes for the moment, it paints a picture of Jamaican music production history and culture. To achieve this, the producers visited several studios in Kingston and talked to artists and producers about what makes a good production and which influence the chosen studio has on the final product.

The series offers insight into the daily work of producers, the historical development of recording technology, as well as different approaches to recording music in times of digitalisation. The producers want to draw attention to interesting hotspots in music history. Jamaica, with its rich musical heritage was the perfect choice for the pilot season considering the musical background of the producers. The two brothers Syrix and Professa (Iriepathie) met producers like Gussie Clarke, King Jammy, Don Corleone or Dean Fraser, who gave an insight into the specific qualities of the individual studios and tell stories from decades of experience as producers.

The first season has been shot in Kingston in December 2013 over a period of four weeks. The series will be accompanied by a producers album, which will be released on Irievibrations Records, and displays the soundtrack to the show. It contains the title track „The Journey“ by Konshens.

Phone call to heaven
Long fi reason wid me fren

Woo woo woo wooohooo

You are still me general, believe me
You are the only fren weh never deceive me

You never switch, never snitch
Encourge and tell me, me ago make it

I know god nah give a man more than him caw bear
But I also know the good ones gone too soon I swear

I remember when we use to role
Any day, any hours a night
When we sneek out

Violate no guy couldn't try
If a fight me deh deh right by yuh side
You defend me, me defend you

You are the only fren weh never deceive me
You are me general, me general
You ratings stand tall
You are the greatest of them all

Forever be mi general
Stand tall..never fall..never fall

Jah 9 says: "I am very excited to share this song and happy I was able to tell the story in my own way, honouring the light hearted nature with which it was written but still injecting important messages in a more universally appealing way. Avocado is that spoon full of sugar to make the medicine go down”. Respect
