Ghost Train Riddim – Unit 137 And Sleepy Time Ghost

Ghost Train Riddim feels a little leaner and more focused than a lot of the heavier Unit 137 fare, which suits Sleepy Time Ghost’s second outing with the London label. The four-track set moves on a rootsy, dub-tinted pulse, with Macka B and Zico’s “Meditation” bringing the most immediate lift, while Mikey General’s “Jah Can Read Your Thoughts” keeps the mood reflective and steady. Hylu and Jago’s “Babylon” remix adds a sharper edge without breaking the flow, giving the project a bit of extra motion. Released on April 21, 2014, and running just 17 minutes, it closes with the “Ghost Train Riddim” instrumental, which leaves the arrangement exposed and lets the bassline do the talking.
