Legendary melodica producer Addis Pablo
Legendary melodica player and producer Addis Pablo has joined forces with roots music creator Ulo Gyata for the release of “Simple,” issued through AHSISS Music Ltd and Rockers International. The new single delivers a fresh, roots-forward sound, blending classic dub sensibilities with a modern, stripped-back production style that highlights melody, rhythm, and deep bass.
“Simple” finds Addis Pablo’s signature melodica lines floating effortlessly over a spacious, groove-driven arrangement. The production channels the timeless Rockers sound while allowing the musicianship to remain front and center. The result is a track that feels both nostalgic and contemporary - appealing to longtime dub purists and new listeners seeking soulful, thoughtful reggae.
“Working with Ulo Gyata on this piece felt like getting back to the core of what reggae and dub are about - heart, rhythm and the room between the notes,” said Addis Pablo. “We kept everything lean so each sound could breathe. That simplicity is where the emotion lives.”
The collaboration marks another strong statement from AHSISS Music Ltd and Rockers International, labels committed to honoring Jamaica’s musical foundation while embracing modern expression.

AHSISS MUSC LTD and Rockers International continue to expand their catalog with releases that balance archival reverence and contemporary relevance.
