More Fyah Riddim – Yutman Records

More Fyah Riddim catches Yutman Records in that lean, rootsy pocket where the groove is doing the heavy lifting, with a warm, militant pulse that leaves room for the singers to carry the fire. Jahcoustix opens things up with “Hide Your Features, ” while Lutan Fyah pairing with Top Banger on “Crumble Dem A Go Crumble” and Crosby and Zoro on “Blood Money” push the set toward sharper, more conscious fire, and Jon Moon’s title cut keeps the message front and centre. Yutman Records billed this as its first riddim selection, and that Berlin base gives the project a slightly different edge without pulling it away from the Jamaican-rooted phrasing. The release came out in 2019 with eight songs plus the instrumental, closing on the “More Fyah Riddim Instrumental” from Yutman Records.
