The Siren Riddim (2005) – Platinum Recording

Platinum Recording’s 2005 Siren Riddim keeps the focus on a tight five-cut dancehall set, with Anthony B’s “Bun Dem Up” and Buju Banton’s “Siren” doing most of the heavy lifting. The rhythm itself leans into that sharp, siren-like pulse the title promises, the kind of mid-2000s Jamaican juggling where the instrumental version sits right alongside the vocals instead of feeling like an afterthought. Slash’s “Poor People” and Twins Of Twins’ “Fuckin Bright” round out the vocal side, while “The Siren – Version” closes the sequence in clean style. The same Siren rhythm also turned up on Greensleeves Rhythm Album #75, where it was credited to Patrick “Roach” Samuels for Time Travel.
