Big Feet Riddim – Parish Records

Big Feet Riddim keeps things tight with just two cuts, and that economy suits Parish Records’ 2001 approach. Champagne’s “Don’t Break My Heart” leans into the kind of plainspoken lovers’ pressure that sits nicely against Everton Chambers’ “Stay With Me, ” which feels like the more anchored of the pair. Parish doesn’t crowd the rhythm with extras here; it lets the songs do the talking, and Chambers in particular sounds locked into the pocket, riding the same warm, sturdy groove that gives the whole thing its name. It’s a small release, but there’s a neat little snap to it, especially in how the voices and the riddim meet.
