Some standard reggae beats too, like rockers. Swung hi-hat, snare on the 3

Also there's Dem Bow, pretty standard in reggaeton and dancehall. I'm a really poor judge of ska and reggaeton, cos the beats scratch my itches so much that it all sounds AMAZING to me

FWIW nobody ever gets royalties for composing/performing a drumbeat

I'm fascinated by the very first version (I think?) of Bam Bam where they hadn't quite worked out what Reggae was yet but it's not exactly ska either

there's a Ska thing going on with a lot of Congolese music, I think.

True, but in this instance neither the writers or the performers didn't receive any royalties at all. It was just pilfered by hip hop / d&b producers..

While that is an amazing piece of music surely Mo Tucker should be given the credit for the beat

It could have been Mo for all Faust knew, neither Jean-Hervé Peron or Zappi remember recording it.

I remember *irish artist* talking on social media last year about one of thier tunes being in a dj set with like 1 millon people streaming, and they are getting nothing, not even recognitions - just 'wow that dj is sick'. We have the tech to sort it now like.
