Riddim World: Roots Reggae, Dancehall & Soca Music

Founder and Owner of Riddim World Riddims Kalacta is a music publisher and database curator best known as the creator of Riddim World. With a strong focus on reggae, dancehall, and soca, he has spent years building one of the web’s most dedicated release archives, covering riddims, singles, albums, artists, and tracklists. His goal has been to preserve and promote Caribbean music culture while giving fans and industry users a reliable place to explore releases. "A global ambassador of reggae and dancehall, I wear many hats—producer, promoter, and lifelong supporter of the culture. Driven by a love for heavy basslines, lyrical fire, and musical unity, my mission is to elevate artists and producers, connect scenes, and keep the heartbeat of reggae and dancehall pulsing worldwide."
