Overdrive - latest riddim from Dave Kelly

Yet another hot riddim from my all-time favourite dancehall producer Dave Kelly, sounding not unlike an updated Joyride for the noughties.

It's not out on 7" yet but has been available on mp3 for a little while now... Stand out cuts come from Cham (Wha Dem Feel Like) and Pinchers (Rat-A-Tat), while other artists featured on the riddim so far include Assassin, Blacker and Christopher. Check the video for Cham's tune below:
