Synthetic Riddim – Diwali

SYNTHETIC RIDDIM produced by DIWALI 2018

Synthetic Overview

Synthetic Riddim is a club-ready dancehall beat that came out in 2018. The riddim was created by DIWALI, a well-known Jamaican producer. DIWALI is famous for shaping the sound of early 2000s dancehall, especially with his hit Diwali Riddim, which powered global songs like Sean Paul’s “Get Busy.” This 2018 release mixes hardcore deejay lyrics with smooth vocals. Firelinks brings energy to “Do Yu Thing,” showing his skills both as a sound system selector and a recording artist. Zumjay, known for tracks like “Courtney,” gives a powerful performance on “The System,” with lyrics that stand out on the riddim. Cezar adds a softer touch with “Turn Me On,” blending singing and deejay styles for a catchy tune. General Degree, who had a major hit with “Traffic Blocking” in the late 1990s, delivers “Bedroom Gangsta.” His playful lyrics and unique voice make his song memorable. Richie Stephens, a singer with a long career and hits like “Winner,” shines on “Dirty Dancin,” giving the riddim a soulful side. Other artists on the project include Bling Dawg with “Gold Digga” and Red Rat with “Hooray.” The riddim itself, “Synthetic Riddim,” is credited to Lenky Marsden, another big name in dancehall production. DIWALI’s work on Synthetic Riddim shows his skill in bringing together different voices and styles. For dancehall fans, 2018 would not be complete without this release. It’s a must-have for selectors and anyone who loves modern Jamaican music.
