Tape Recorder Riddim – Noku Music Group

Noku Music Group’s 2019 Tape Recorder Riddim is a Zimdancehall dancehall set that pulls together 13 tracks from a strong local lineup, including Leeman with Kungoti Fire, Macriss with Havaifunga, Mayor with Takuda Simudza, and Mega Voice on Tinochimhanya. Muffa’s Dem Say Dem Bad with Jerryman, Willie Bounce’s Tape Recorder with Jasper Galus, and Zj Pythaan’s Ladder give the riddim some of its most memorable moments, while Sir Preacher, P Scalah, and Vibes Kashona help fill out a busy release that keeps the energy lean and street-focused. It also sits neatly in Noku Music Group’s 2019 catalogue, where the label was active across several riddim projects, and the Tape Recorder set keeps that era’s sharp, hard-edged ZimDancehall sound front and centre.
