Jungle Flute Riddim – Added Rankin

With Vincy Mas 2021 in the air, Added Rankin’s Jungle Flute Riddim taps into that carnival-season energy with a bright, percussive soca pulse and a small but telling cast: DJ Cheem’s “Cook Food, ” Prezzi Don’s “Real Life Thing, ” and Taller Dan’s “Dingolay. ” The instrumental and the two “Rest On” versions frame the project neatly, while the “Caribbean Radio Edit” treatment on a couple of cuts suggests Rankin was thinking about how the riddim would move both in rotation and on the road. It sits alongside the producer’s other carnival-minded work like Band Parade, Jumbie Horn, and Road Tribute, but this one feels a touch leaner and more rhythm-forward, with the flute motif doing a lot of the heavy lifting.
