Gold Teeth Riddim – Bassline Rock Music

Gold Teeth Riddim catches that mid-2010s dancehall pocket Bassline Rock Music was working in, with a trim seven-track set that keeps the focus on chant-heavy street tunes and a handful of voices rather than a crowded parade of names. Young Deedz’s “Bubble Harda” opens with both radio and raw versions, while Froggy Maddsquad gets the grittiest run of the session on “Guh Hard” and “Just A Talk, ” and Melody Blacks’ “Informa” adds the kind of sly, warning-shot energy that suits the whole riddim. The production leans hard into a rough-edged, bass-forward swing, then loosens up enough for the remix with Froggy Maddsquad to hit a little differently without breaking the mood. Released in 2014, the lineup also includes MBK and Apprentice on “Smoke Something. ”
