Shake It Riddim – Tekktroniic Muziq

Tekktroniic Muziq’s Shake It Riddim sits neatly in the producer’s 2017 dancehall run, a compact four-track drop that keeps the focus on the groove rather than overcrowding the thing. “Island People” from Globis leans into a breezy, party-forward feel, while Scenatro’s “Tic Toc Tic” rides the rhythm with a sharper, more percussive bounce. Yagga T’s “Shake It” keeps the name of the riddim front and center, and the producer’s own cut closes it out in proper style. It first surfaced in April 2017, so this is very much one of those mid-2010s dancehall instrumentals that was built for quick rotation and straight-forward juggling.
