Story Book Riddim (2019) – Ytm Recordz/mr Legz

YTM Recordz and Mr. Legz frame Story Book Riddim as a lean 2019 soca set that keeps the focus on the voices, with just six cuts and a clean instrumental closing the circle. The lineup is strong: Farmer Nappy teams with Mr. Legz on “Fun Friend, ” Destra leans into the cheeky push and pull of “Size Don’t Matter, ” and Ricardo Drue’s “Find Yourself (Breathless)” gives the riddim one of its smoother, more melodic turns. At around 146 BPM, the instrumental has enough drive for Carnival dancers but still leaves space for the songs to breathe, which fits the way YTM Recordz has handled its soca work here. That’s the appeal of this one in their catalogue: not a cluttered compilation, but a tidy, performance-ready riddim built for selectors who want a few proven names and a hook-heavy groove.
