Moving Away Riddim – Regulator Records

Regulator Records comes into view here with a 2005 cut that leans more rootsy than flashy, and that’s part of the charm of Moving Away Riddim: it gives Buju Banton’s “Another Don Come Down” and Delly Ranks’ “Good God” enough room to settle into the groove without crowding them. The lineup runs deep for the era, with Boom Dandimite and Mitch, Determine, Ghost, Lexxus and Major Christie all finding different angles on the same backing, from tougher dancehall talk to cleaner lovers-rock turns. The version itself is listed at the end of the set, which feels right for a riddim like this, because the whole thing has that steady, unhurried pulse that lets the vocals do the talking.
