Gyal Pharm Riddim – Keep Left Records

Gyal Pharm Riddim catches that late-2010 dancehall swing with a bright, party-minded pulse and a quick-hit lineup that leans on big names without overcrowding the vibe. Keep Left Records anchors it with a compact 10-track set, and the strongest moments come from the rough-edged snap of Assassin’s “So Fly, ” Bugle’s sharper “Punk Dem, ” and Elephant Man’s “Brush Wi Nuh Care, ” while Sean Paul’s “Ready Fi Dis” keeps the energy aimed squarely at the dance. Leftside doubles up with “Hands In Da Air” and “My Opinion, ” giving the riddim a little extra movement between the heavier vocals and the instrumental cut. The whole thing sits in the 2010 dancehall run, and the tracklist closes with Tosh’s “Ready To Party” after Tony Matterhorn’s “Ready Fi Touch, ” which tells you exactly where this one wants to end up.
