Neck Brace Riddim – Mashworks Family Studio Productions

Out of the 2018 soca run, Neck Brace Riddim lands as a lean four-track set from Mashworks Family Studio Productions, with D’Regulars, Tonio D Don, and Vision each taking a different angle on the same beat. The title already tells you the vibe: this is music aimed squarely at the road, with a waistline-moving pace and enough punch in the rhythm to match the name. The instrumental sits in the middle of the pack like a proper DJ cut, but the vocal tunes keep the energy pointed toward jab season, especially Tonio D Don’s For The Jab, which feels like the one built to carry the most heat. Vision’s Bad So and D’Regulars’ Hole Deep keep the pressure on, and the whole thing runs like a tight party-ready session rather than a sprawling compilation.
