Up Down Riddim – Mixing Lab Records

Up Down Riddim is a 1999 dancehall set produced by Roy Francis for Mixing Lab Records. It brings together Action Fire on Hold Up A Girl, Determine on Fassy, Future Trouble and Meeky Melody on Hi There, General B on Anything, Ghost on Up Down, Lexxus and Thriller U on Cutie, and Merciless on Tony Cutis Married Life, with an instrumental cut rounding it out. The rhythm has that late-90s Mixing Lab feel: tight, stripped-back, and built for the dance. Roy Francis and Mixing Lab were already a familiar name in Jamaican soundsystem circles by then, and the lineup mixes veterans and rising voices in a way that keeps the release lively.
