Island Overview
Island Riddim, released by AQUARION STUDIOS in 2011, quickly became a favorite on soca playlists that year. The riddim stands out for its blend of old and new soca sounds, creating a strong base for truck anthems during carnival parades. The carnival director played a key role in shaping the parade set, working closely with the artists to capture the right energy for the road. AQUARION STUDIOS, known for its focus on Caribbean genres, has produced several notable soca and calypso projects. Their attention to detail in the recording process helped each track on Island Riddim flow smoothly from start to finish. Artists like Hasty, with the song Daylight Come, and Killa, with Sugar Pot, added their own styles to the riddim. Hasty is recognized for his energetic performances, while Killa is well known in the soca scene for his catchy hooks. Nekoyan and Keisha teamed up on Mista Wukka Feat. Keisha, bringing a playful vibe to the mix. Sheldon Douglas contributed Ah An Lying, adding a classic touch to the collection. The recording sessions were lively, with each artist working to blend their voice with the riddim’s calypso textures. The result was a set of songs that kept carnival crowds moving and made Island Riddim a lasting part of 2011’s soca sound.
