Break Away Riddim – Chimney Records

Released in 2016 on Chimney Records, Break Away Riddim pulls together nine dancehall cuts with Chris Martin, Dexta Daps, Jahmiel, Kabaka Pyramid, Masicka, Vershon and Zagga among the names in the lineup. Dexta Daps’ 1 Minute and Jahmiel’s title track are two of the standouts, while Kabaka Pyramid’s Wake Up and Masicka’s Fly Ova Dem keep the energy moving across the project. The riddim is credited to Jordan McClure and David Hayle’s Chimney camp, a production team that has become a familiar name in modern Jamaican dancehall, and this set sits neatly in that 2016 wave of sharp, melody-driven releases.
