Tampa Riddim Paris La Mont
Producer and GRAMMY-nominated keyboardist Paris La Mont steps to the forefront with the Tampa Riddim, a high-energy juggling project that brings a modern edge to foundational roots reggae. This compilation highlights La Mont’s sharp production, laying down a versatile and authentic instrumental built to support a diverse lineup of international vocalists.
The release is anchored by the powerful lead single "Burn It to the Ground" by Mortimer, which sets a strong tone for the rest of the tracklist. From there, the riddim adapts seamlessly to different vocal styles. The first half features standout performances from artists like Bazil, Kalia-Shea, and Clatta Bumboo, while the second half brings in heavy-hitters like Iotosh, Shemeika, and Army Gideon.
To round out the project, Tampa Riddim dives deep into the mixing board. La Mont teams up with renowned engineer Tippy I-Grade for a series of exclusive dub mixes, stripping back the vocals to let the core groove shine. The result is a well-rounded, classic juggling release that bridges traditional reggae formats with today’s rising talent.
