Purple Touch Riddim (2013) – New League Music

Purple Touch Riddim landed in 2013 under New League Music, and it feels like a clean, modern dancehall juggling with a strong singer-side core rather than a pure hardcore bashment push. The riddim circles around glossy synth lines, a taut midtempo bounce, and a bright, radio-ready mix that leaves room for hooks to land hard without burying the groove. That balance suits New League Music, a label that has repeatedly worked dancehall projects with a polished, crossover-friendly edge.

The set pulls in Ajrenalin alongside Christopher Martin on “Touch, ” Future Fambo on “Snake Chamer, ” Gyptian on “The Way You Move, ” Munga on “Bring It Gi Mi, ” Richie Loop on “You A Di Baddest, ” and Stein on “Bad Man Loving. ” Christopher Martin brings his familiar smooth, melodic style from St. Catherine, the kind of voice that can lift a riddim without forcing it. Gyptian adds the warm, lover’s-rock-to-modern-dancehall glide he built his name on, while Munga comes in with sharper attack and a tougher tone that gives the project more muscle. Future Fambo’s rugged delivery and Richie Loop’s catchy, streetwise phrasing keep the energy moving, and Stein’s cut adds another rough-edged pass at the same rhythm.

What makes the riddim click is the way it can hold both polished vocal records and more aggressive dancehall talk without losing shape. The tracklist is short enough to feel focused, but varied enough to show how New League Music wanted the rhythm to travel across styles rather than sit in one lane.
