Mighty Bounce Riddim – True Loyal Records

Three voices, three songs, and a clean/raw setup make Mighty Bounce Riddim feel more like a compact dancehall showcase than a sprawling compilation, with Echo Don’s “Nuh Follow, ” Insidius’ “Likkle Likkle, ” and Likkle Dainjah’s “Pow” each getting doubled versions around the instrumental. The title suggests plenty of movement, and the production leans into that with a sharp, bouncy groove that keeps the bass working while leaving space for the deejays to cut through; Echo Don’s rebellious “Nuh Follow” and Likkle Dainjah’s punchier “Pow” are the quickest hooks in the pack, while Insidius brings a more measured ride on “Likkle Likkle. ” Produced by True Loyal Records in 2016, the release runs seven tracks in all, ending with the straight instrumental cut.
