High School Riddim – Attack Released

Attack Released usually leans into the digital side of reggae, so High School Riddim has that crisp, homemade feel right away, but this one’s a little lighter and more playful than the tougher sounds they’re better known for. The set is short and tidy: French Embassy comes in sharp on “Tek Weh Yuh Gyal, ” while Joseph Cotton’s “High School Days” gives the riddim its strongest hook, riding the groove with that veteran ease. Propa’s “Only Love” keeps things sweeter and more reflective, which gives the EP a nice bit of balance. Released in March 2017, it landed as a four-track package with the instrumental tucked in as the closer, the kind of small, focused project that made Attack Released’s catalogue feel well thought-out rather than throwaway.
