Tempo 93 Riddim – Black Roots Music

Black Roots Music takes a gentler turn on Tempo 93 Riddim, leaning into a sweet old-school lovers rock feel rather than the harder roots pressure the label’s name might suggest. The five-song set keeps the focus tight, with Jah Cure’s “Another Game” and Luciano’s “Only Human” giving the cut its strongest pull, while Ras Shiloh and Chezidek ride the same steady one-drop with that clear, meditative phrasing both artists do so well. The production sits in that warm mid-tempo pocket, more sway than drive, so Ed Robinson’s “Time To Move On” has room to breathe and the whole thing keeps an intimate, front-porch feel. Released in 2015, the riddim lines up five tracks from five artists: Ed Robinson, Ras Shiloh, Chezidek, Jah Cure, and Luciano.

1. Ed Robinson – Time To Move On
