Maxfield Avenue Riddim – Big League

Maxfield Avenue Riddim is a heavier step from Big League, and it leans hard into that Channel One-style, rub-a-dub pressure rather than glossy modern dancehall sheen. The bass line is deep, the guitars keep a tight skank, and the whole thing feels built for roots heads who like their riddims with a bit of dread in the air. Anthony B’s “Build Back The Vibes” and Morgan Heritage’s “Perform And Done” do a lot of the heavy lifting here, while Cali P’s “Wah Gwaan” brings a sharp, conversational edge that gives the set some lift. Koxx’s “Believer” was strong enough to get singled out for its dub version too, which tells you how much attention the production got. Released around mid-2014, the set lands as a compact seven-track run that keeps its focus tight and its mood thoroughly old-school.
