Danger In Your Face Riddim – Xterinator Productions

Danger In Your Face Riddim lands in that late-Xterminator 2011 pocket where roots reggae still carries a hard edge, with I Wayne, Jesse Royal, Kayla Bliss and Sizzla all cutting through the same austere frame. Produced by Xterminator Productions, it sits in line with the label’s roots-leaning approach, and the release also carries a little extra weight as one of the last projects tied to Philip “Fattis” Burrell before his passing later that year. Jesse Royal’s “One Eye Open” and Sizzla’s “What’s Wrong With The Picture” are the cuts that immediately sharpen the set, while I Wayne’s “Love Addiction” keeps the mood meditative and wary. The arrangement leans on a steady one-drop pulse, clipped guitar skank and a restrained bass figure that leaves space for the vocals to do the heavy lifting.
