Bad Lamp Riddim – Warbuss Entertainment And Peela Productions

Fyakin’s “Bad Lamp” leads this 2014 Warbuss Entertainment and Peela Productions set with the kind of straight-ahead dancehall cut that gives the whole riddim its name and its bite, while Wada Blood’s “Have Gyal Everywhere” and Shellz’s “Weekend” keep the energy on the same lean, street-level footing. The package runs six tracks in all and closes with Grant’s “Bad Lamp Instrumental, ” with Briggy Benz’s “Leaders” appearing in both clean and raw versions, a small but useful sequencing detail that gives DJs a couple of ways in. It’s a compact, no-frills release from two producers who kept the focus on versions and vocal variation rather than stacking the tracklist.
