The Sun Blast Riddim – Scorch Music|Romie Rome

Erphaan Alves is the draw here, and “Doh Hold It Back” gives The Sun Blast Riddim its sharpest push, but the whole five-song set keeps the pace moving with 5Star Akil’s “Go Go Dancer, ” Nessa Preppy’s “Activate, ” and Preedy’s “Heat In De Place” all leaning into that bright, pressure-cooker soca energy. Romie Rome and Scorch Music keep the arrangement tight and punchy rather than overloading it, which fits the way Rome has handled his other Carnival-era projects too: this is more about clean, effective road-ready momentum than big studio excess. Released in late 2016 and filed as a 2017 soca riddim in some catalogues, it sits neatly in the middle of Rome’s run of Trinidad-focused productions, the kind of cut that feels built for fete season and still snaps in a short, compact package.
