Hourglass Riddim – Eternus Music Production

Eternus Music Production’s Hourglass Riddim sits in that early-2010s wave of compact, straight-ahead dancehall juggling, with a tidy eight-cut lineup led by Juggla’s cheeky “Miss Chin, ” Kibaki’s fiery “Hot Like Fire, ” and Singing Sweet’s smoother “A Girl Like You. ” The riddim itself feels lean and movement-friendly, all sharp bounce and enough low-end to keep the dancers locked in without getting too busy. Kibaki’s cut has the kind of singalong hook that can carry a party, while Melloquence and Schoolboy keep the energy rolling with quick-fire rude-boy and loverman angles. Damion Traxx Nelson’s Eternus imprint was behind the board here, and the set landed in 2011, right when this kind of dancehall compilation was still a proper sound-system calling card rather than background catalog filler.
