The Bug Riddim – Mad House

The Bug Riddim is a 1999 Mad House dancehall release packed with heavy-hitters from the era, including Beenie Man, Bounty Killer, Baby Cham, Lady Saw, Shaggy, Spragga Benz, Chico, Frisco Kid and Alias. The set runs as a compact one-riddim showcase with a built-in version cut, and tracks like Another Level, Look Into My Eyes, Ghetto Pledge, Dial Tone and You Reputation No Spoil give it plenty of range across the same rhythm. Mad House, the Kingston label led by Dave Kelly, was one of the defining forces in late-’90s dancehall, and this riddim sits right in that run of sharp, club-ready productions that helped shape the sound of the period.
