Rum Shot Riddim – Crossroad Music

Crossroad Music’s Rum Shot Riddim from 2016 sits right in that lively soca pocket where the bass is quick on its feet and the hooky vocal rides come first. Voicemail’s “Hold A Vibes” sets the tone with the kind of rowdy, party-ready energy the title promises, and Delly Ranx’s “Party Animal” pushes it a little rougher, with Sheba and Jah Will adding their own club-minded spins along the way. There’s a nice contrast here between the light carnival lift in tracks like “Celebrate” and the more swaggering “R. C (Nah Leave), ” which keeps the riddim from feeling one-note. Crossroad keeps the arrangement tight and bright, and the instrumentals at the end leave the whole thing hanging with that after-hours rum-shop feel.
