Tight P Riddim – Gargamel Music

Tight P Riddim produced by Gargamel Music 2009

Out of Jamaica’s 2009 dancehall-reggae circuit, Tight P Riddim feels like one of those Gargamel Music sets that caught the year’s rougher, more playful energy in one place. The rhythm has a taut, skanking bounce with enough low end to keep the sound system moving, leaving room for Buju Banton’s “Text Message” to land with real authority and Sizzla’s “Hide” to cut through with a sharper edge. Macka Diamond brings the cheeky counterpoint on “Cant Dung, ” while Delly Ranks and the Mr. Lex and Tony Curtis pairing push the riddim toward party mode. Ghost’s “Through The Fire” adds a more soulful touch, which helps keep the set from feeling one-note. With 13 tracks and 15 voices, it sits right in that late-2000s period when riddims were still carrying both radio-friendly hooks and street-level energy.
