Trash Can Riddim – Ice Berg Records

TRASH CAN RIDDIM produced by ICE BERG RECORDS 2004

Trash Can Riddim from Ice Berg Records lands in that mid-2004 dancehall pocket where the beats are lean, the energy’s sharp, and the lyrical approach is mostly straight to the point. The set pulls in Angel, Chico, Macka Diamond, Ward 21 and Zumjay, with Macka Diamond’s “Fit Physically” and Ward 21’s “More Gal” giving the riddim two of its cleaner hooks, while Chico’s “Dont Ask Me” keeps the sex-and-switch-up vibe moving. It’s a 13-track cut with 14 artists, and the arrangement leans on a clipped digital pulse rather than anything overly ornate, so the voices have room to do the heavy lifting. Even with a couple of pairings in the mix, the project stays tight, driven by a dry, percussive bounce and a bassline that sits low and steady underneath the chatter.
