Skyest Riddim – Various Artists

SKYEST RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2008

Skyest Riddim lands in that late-2000s reggae pocket where the rhythm does the heavy lifting, and this one keeps things tight: just five tracks, three artists, and a clear focus on Hyah Slice’s “Highest To The Skyest, ” which turns up in both raw and edit form. Pattex also gets two passes with “Life So Hard, ” while Farenheit’s “Tonight” adds a smoother contrast, so the whole set feels more like a compact showcase than a crowded compilation. With “VARIOUS ARTISTS” credited as the production name and the release dated to 2008, it sits neatly among that year’s long run of roots-and-modern reggae riddims. The tracklist runs Hyah Slice’s raw and edit versions, then Farenheit, then Pattex in edit and raw form, all in five cuts total.
