Early Warm Riddim (2021) – Zigedub Productions

Early Warm Riddim feels like a proper pre-dance set in reggae form, the kind of compilation that eases into the night with sweet lovers rock moods, clean melodies and a little bit of sentiment. Zigedub Productions framed it around the old dancehall “early warm” idea, and that gives the whole project its shape: this isn’t trying to thunder, it’s trying to draw people in. Daddy West’s “Queen of Glam” opens with a catchy, polished feel, while Isha Blender’s “Kryptonite Love” leans into a more soulful, R and B-tinted lane that sits nicely on the rhythm. Ebiere’s “Super Hero” also catches the ear, especially for the way it keeps the vibe tender without going soft. Released in 2021, the set taps voices from different places and keeps the focus on feel rather than flash.
