HAMMER RIDDIM produced by HEAVY BEAT RECORDS 2011
Hammer Riddim lands in that warm, rootsy corner of early-2010s reggae where seasoned voices and newer singers share the same cut, with Heavy Beat Records giving it an easy, mid-tempo feel that sits more in lover’s rock and modern vocal reggae than anything hard-edged. Beres Hammond’s “Keeping It Real (New Mix)” is the obvious anchor, but Marcia Griffiths on “You Can Feel Love” and Barry Biggs on “You’re Gonna Need Me (Medley)” keep the energy moving with that classic, polished delivery that made this kind of various-artist set work so well. The lineup also brings in Ambelique, J. C. Lodge, Sharon Forrester, Ashli Jade, Jah Ruby and the Lindo pairing on “Small Change (New Mix), ” and the finished set runs 11 tracks deep, with an official mix credited to Lady Libertone.
