Biting Ants Riddim – Wiletunes

A taut, low-slung 2013 dancehall set, Biting Ants leans on sharp digital drums and a nagging little hook that gives the whole rhythm its name plenty of bite. Wiletunes lines up some heavy hitters here, with Beenie Man’s “The Gum” and Cobra’s “Seh Suh Nuh” giving the riddim its biggest jolt, while Elephant Man, Frisco Kid and Ward 21 keep the energy rough and streetwise. Marcy Chin’s “Di Pree” adds a lighter, more playful touch in the middle of all that slackness, and Point O’s “Big Up” keeps the momentum moving. The cuts are split between radio and raw versions on several tunes, which tells you this one was built for both the sound system and the selector. It closes out on Ward 21’s “Goodaz, ” a fitting final punch before the instrumental.
