Nectar Riddim (2020) – Quantam Productions

Released in 2018, Nectar Riddim comes from Quantam Productions and keeps the focus squarely on soca energy with a tight six-track lineup. Barry Chandler’s More Life, Don Hendricks’ Place To Be, and Tony Bailey’s Want Company are among the key cuts, while Matt Muzik links up with Project X The Band on Spread Love for a more collaborative touch. The riddim brings together six different artists, including Rene King and Mane Event, and it has the kind of clean, party-ready swing that suits Carnival season. Quantam Productions also has a run of other riddim work around the same era, which fits the polished, modern feel here.
