Ace Of Spade Riddim – All Faces/Knatural Ent

Ace Of Spade Riddim sits in the early All Faces/Knatural Ent catalogue as a 2013 dancehall set that keeps the cast tight and the cuts short, with 11 tracks from nine artists and a clear focus on a few names that carry the energy. The line-up leans on Aniklypse, Kibaki, Potential Kidd, Savage, Sizzla and Stalkas, while the instrumental itself runs about two and a half minutes per tune, which gives the whole thing a lean, fast-moving feel. Production-wise it’s a hard, speaker-rattling dancehall pattern rather than anything glossy, the kind of riddim that leaves room for the voices to cut through without crowding the mix. Sizzla’s “Bigg And A Buss” and Potential Kidd’s “Weh Mi Like” sit near the centre of it all, and the steady bassline keeps the pace taut right through to the instrumental.
