Mix Up Riddim (More) – Platinum Kids

MIX UP RIDDIM (MORE) – PLATINUM KIDS 2011

Out of the 2011 dancehall pack cycle, Mix Up Riddim (More) lands as a sharp little six-song-style set from Platinum Kids, with the kind of lean, club-ready energy that suited the era. Gappy Ranks’ “Ohhh Oh” and Tifa’s “Man Haffi Come Home” do a lot of the heavy lifting here, while Notch’s “Modle Pon A Gal” and Baby Chris’ “Gal Bruk Out” keep the project moving with that cheeky, streetwise edge. The cut from New Kingston, “Waist Line, ” adds a smoother, more melodic turn without losing the bounce. Compared with Platinum Kids’ later riddim work, this one feels more stripped-back and focused, less about big glossy arrangements and more about a tight groove and quick vocal punch. It sits neatly in the label’s 2011 catalogue as a compact dancehall selection built for sound systems.
