Smooth Wind Riddim – Kickin Productions

By 2001, Kickin Productions had Smooth Wind Riddim circulating as a compact eight-tune reggae set that leans on rootsy singers and harder-edged chat, with Capleton’s “Aggressor” and Glen Washington’s “I Stand Alone” doing a lot of the heavy lifting on the vocal side. The lineup also gives Jah Mason room to stretch on “Keep Your Joy, ” while Richie Stephens brings a lighter touch on “Diana” and Delly Ranks keeps the pressure up with “Which Set A Bwoy. ” It’s the kind of riddim compilation that plays straight through without fuss, and the sequence leaves the listener with a clear split between militant fire and more devotional, uplifting cuts. Smooth Wind Riddim contains eight tracks and was produced by Kickin Productions in 2001.
