Number One Riddim – Mad Media House Records

NUMBER ONE RIDDIM produced by MAD MEDIA HOUSE RECORDS 2011

Mad Media House Records’ Number One Riddim lands in the label’s 2011 dancehall catalog as a compact eight-cut set, and the way it nods to the classic “Number One” name gives the whole thing a little extra weight without overplaying the nostalgia. Dane Ray’s “Profile” and Teflon’s “Evil Can’t Get I Down” sit comfortably beside Zagga’s “Wah Mi Fi Do” and Patexx’s “Empty Barrel, ” with the various artists leaning into a sharp, mid-tempo bounce that keeps the energy taut and the hooks easy to catch. It’s the kind of riddim that leaves room for personality, so each voice gets to punch through the arrangement rather than fight it. The package closes with the version cut, “Number One Riddim, ” making the set feel complete at eight tracks all told.
