2014 was a busy stretch for roots-driven reggae riddims, and Junction Riddim landed right in that lane with Lustre Kings Productions lining up a veteran-heavy cast around a live-sounding one-drop. The project runs from Jahdan Blakkamoore’s “For The Children” and Lutan Fyah’s militant “Up In The Hills” to a rare Johnny Osbourne appearance on “We Steppin’, ” with Angela Hunte and Hempress Sativa adding a sharper contemporary edge. Lustre Kings were working through the Zion I Kings orbit at the time, and that shows in the arrangement: warm bass, crisp drums, guitar skank, and just enough digital polish to keep the cuts moving without losing the organic feel. At 80 BPM, it sits in that mid-tempo pocket where the vocals can stretch out and the bass line does most of the talking.
