Floating Away Riddim – Dam Records

A nine-track set with 13 voices on it, Floating Away Riddim feels like the kind of 2015 dancehall juggling that wants a full rotation of moods rather than a single runaway anthem. DAM Records keeps the pace in the mid-tempo lane, with Assassin aka Agent Sasco, Stylo G, Young Deedz, and Stamma Kid giving the riddim its clearest hooks, while the “High Grade” cut from Dj Assassin, Suave, and Shawn Mental adds a sharper, more street-minded edge. The sequence moves from D Blacks’ “Right Know” through a run of reflective titles like “Mama, ” “Where Is the Love, ” and “End Time, ” so the project leans into a sober, everyday tone instead of chasing flashy carnival energy. It closes with “Kee It Real, ” which feels like the producer’s way of leaving the listener on a grounded note.
