Dry Face Overview

In 1996, reggae fans in the UK and beyond spent many nights dancing to the sounds of the Dry Face Riddim. This compilation quickly became a favorite among selectors, who wanted to bring energy and real reggae vibes to their sets. Compared to other compilations from the same era, Dry Face Riddim stood out for its strong percussion and lively spirit. While some riddim albums focused on smoother or digital sounds, this one kept the dancefloor moving with a raw, rhythmic style. Mafia And Fluxy, the producers behind the riddim, were already respected in reggae music. They started their career in the 1980s and worked with many big names, building their own label and gaining a reputation for sharp, modern reggae production. Their skill as a rhythm section and at the mixing board made every track sound powerful and clear. The compilation featured Glamma Kid with the song "Outertain." Glamma Kid later became known for his hit "Taboo" with Shola Ama, which reached the UK Top 10. Mafia And Fluxy themselves delivered "Dry Face," showing their talent both as musicians and producers. Sweetie Irie’s "Brixton Riot" added another layer, with Sweetie Irie known for his work with Gorillaz on "Clint Eastwood." Together, these tracks made Dry Face Riddim a must-have for selectors and a soundtrack to unforgettable 1996 parties.
