Wire Dem Riddim – 324 New Empire Records

Seven cuts deep, Wire Dem Riddim comes off like a tidy little dancehall juggling with veteran muscle up front and no wasted motion. Beenie Man and Chadda open things with “Every Girl Want, ” a cheeky crowd-pleaser with that ready-made sound for the dance, while Elephant Man’s “Bogle Move” is pure movement music, chasing the old-school dancehall energy his name always promises. Chino, Sizzla, Turbulance and Jah Vinci each get in and out fast, keeping the tempo hot and the hooks lean, and the instrumental closes the loop cleanly. Produced by 324 New Empire Records, the set surfaced in 2015 and then rolled out more widely the next year, which fits a riddim that feels aimed squarely at selectors and dancefloor rotation rather than album-style listening.
