Chimes Riddim – G Music Group

Chiming bright and breezy, this 2014 soca set from G Music Group rides on a light, springy groove that leaves plenty of room for waistline moves and quick-fire vocals. Mystique’s “Boss Chick” opens the trio with a confident, party-ready attitude, while Scholar and Pappy Boi turn “Taking Knock” into the kind of cheeky, crowd-friendly cut that works best in a fete. Soca Shaq’s “Whine On You” keeps the pressure on with a flirtier edge, and the short tracklist gives the riddim a tight, no-nonsense feel. Issued by G Music Group and later circulated with an instrumental mix, Chimes sits in that mid-2010s soca lane where compact, DJ-friendly riddims were made for fast rotation and instant response on the road.
