Riddim Watch: Mesopotamia

The Mesopotamia riddim is a new riddim to come out on Penthouse records this year. This riddim features a great up-tempo ska groove with a host of reggae artists adding their vocals to the groove. This tune is straight up classic rocksteady stomping. The drums are simplistic and solid, the bass lines bob around the beat while the horns punctuate and give character. This is a great riddim for someone looking for something to dance to but wants to deviate from the very hip hop leaning dancehall style. While this probably won’t be the next club smash, the music is great and the vocals showcase some great performances. This riddim is highly recommended and can be heard here. Find this and many more like it here on WERS.org as well as on Rockers 7-10 weeknights on WERS!

Be sure to listen to Rockers from 7-10PM Monday-Friday to hear this and all the newest and hottest riddims , from Kingston to Boston!
