Gorilla Riddim – Necessary Mayhem

Already in 2011, Curtis Lynch Jr. ’s Necessary Mayhem was lining up a proper juggling around the Gorilla riddim, and this one carries that sharp UK-dancehall edge: tough, stripped-back, and made for big soundsystem play. Charly Black’s “Love Guarantee” is one of the sweeter cuts in the set, while Bramma and Bmwa lean harder with “Go Inna Grave” and “Over Everything, ” both available in clean and raw versions, which tells you the label was thinking about DJ use as much as the radio edit. Macka B turns up on “Our Music, ” and Da Grynch’s own “Gorrilla” cut keeps the producer firmly in the mix, with the whole project landing as a 10-track April 4, 2011 release issued on Necessary Mayhem.
