Difference Between a Cut & a Version To A Riddim?

[stepping razor]

Take the Satta riddim for instance. There have been so many cuts & versions to it.......Tell Mi sir,Why there 1.000 versions of one riddim ser........
Same with the Peanie Peanie riddim, some people call it the Fade Away riddim.As some riddims evolved, some of them got called different names.

some riddims' carry the name of the most popular or well known version not of the original: M16; Taxi; Answer are examples, this is purely down to chance, there is no governing body that keeps records, though there are plenty of trainspotters keeping notes.

real rock never changed, how come? i wonder

A lot of riddims have stayed the same,and have, or been redone from scratch and redoing the same bass line. what makes a riddim last with 50-100+ versions, cuts?..and what defines the boogle riddim is it one riddim or a style of riddim....but more to do with the roots music from the 70s and early 80s where you would have a lot of different versions of one riddim in a short space of time. eg; mixed by King Tubbys,,

Nobody apart from me think there is too many cuts to too many riddims?

They just give these riddims new names, so people will buy it, as they think it's a new riddim.
It's just a 'smart' way of selling...
