Double Trouble Riddim – Steely and Clevie Records

So this one leans on that early-’90s Steely and Clevie touch: brisk, tidy, and heavy on groove without crowding the vocal. The cut turns up in 1992, and the small lineup says a lot about how the rhythm was meant to move — Culture T’s “Notice Board” opens things with a chatty edge, Beres Hammond’s “Double Trouble” brings the warm hook and the emotional center, and Jack Raddicks with Reggie Stepper close it out on “Guaranteed Love. ” There’s a nice contrast between the singer-led side and the more talkative deejay energy, which is exactly the kind of sequencing Steely and Clevie liked to use when they wanted one riddim to carry different moods.
