Crates Riddim – Buss Move Records and Andrew Powell

2016 was a busy stretch for dancehall riddims, and Crates fits that era’s stripped-back, singer-friendly approach, letting each cut ride the groove without clutter. Buss Move Records and Andrew Powell keep the focus tight here, with just five voices moving through the pattern: Gappy Ranks opens with the reflective “Time Of My Life, ” Teflon’s “Real Good” adds some grit, and Venom Legacy closes on “Victory. ” The title itself hints at the session’s working feel, and there’s a neat sense of economy in the way the lineup is spaced out, one tune after another, so the riddim can breathe between styles instead of getting crowded.
