Midnight Run Riddim – Damien Ceza Productions

Midnight Run Riddim lands in that clean, rootsy reggae pocket Damien Ceza was aiming for, with a heavy kick and bass feel that still leaves room for the singers to breathe. Anthony B opens the set with “Wi Nuh Fight Progress, ” and Turbulence’s “Dem No Real” gives the rhythm some of its sharpest edge, while the rest of the line-up keeps the message conscious across cuts from Codiac Knowdiac, Swashii, Curtisay, Trapycal, Chele and Itshe. Ceza, a Staten Island selector turned producer, stepped into production with this project in 2021 and even closes the riddim himself on “Midnight Run Version, ” which ties the whole thing back to the source. The release runs nine tracks deep, all under Damien Ceza Productions.
