Touch Dem Riddim – Heart Of Love Production

Muted pressure. Touch Dem Riddim lands as a compact 2009 roots set from Heart Of Love Production, with Queen Ifrica’s “No Bwoy” and Tony Rebel’s “A Case Inna Court” doing most of the heavy lifting over a spare, militant one-drop feel. Nature’s “Time A The Master” keeps the conscious edge firm, while Ico Flames’ “Good Music” adds a warmer, more celebratory lift before the version closes it out. It’s the kind of lineup that tells you Heart Of Love were leaning on strong voices rather than studio trickery, and that approach lines up with the producer’s other work from that period, including the similarly focused Rough Times and Set Me Free outings. In the label’s 2009 run, Touch Dem sits right in that serious, message-driven pocket.
