1994 dancehall comes through here on The Dance Is Nice Riddim, also known as Africa Riddim, produced by Castro Brown and Sly and Robbie for New Name Music. The lineup links Thriller Prince, Lady Saw, Future Troubles, Chippy Prophet, Iceman and Nakema across seven cuts, with Lady Saw’s New Year and Future Troubles’ Impersonate Bad Man among the most memorable selections. The package also includes the instrumental version, giving the riddim room to breathe and showing off the lean, driving groove that sits behind the vocal tracks. Castro Brown and Sly and Robbie were already a proven team by then, and this set fits neatly into that sharp mid-90s New Name run.
