Dreamers Passion Riddim – Sasaine Music

Sasaine Music’s Dreamers Passion Riddim sits neatly among the label’s 2015 run of dancehall projects, and it leans into a thoughtful, mid-tempo feel rather than trying to muscle its way through the room. Released on June 16, 2015, it gathers nine cuts from nine different voices, with Deep Jahi’s “Thoughts In My Head, ” Zagga’s “Dreamer, ” and Jahvillani’s “Yuh Gone (R. I. P. )” giving the set its sharpest pull. Zagga’s tune had already started drawing attention on release, which fits the riddim’s reflective mood and its focus on ambition, love, and loss. Sasaine also leaves space for a closing instrumental version, so the sequencing feels designed to let the songs speak first and the riddim breathe at the end.
