Ok, here we go, and we have a riddim release for Carnival 2026. This one is titled "D'Guitar Riddim," and it features three songs with artists vying to carve out their niche place in this very competitive Soca music industry. D’Guitar Riddim isn't flashy or spiking a Power Soca vibe. Instead, it is a silky, groove-driven Soca compilation that’s setting the tone for slow wines, confident struts, and pure Caribbean cool.
The album is a production of Richard Gosine of Golden Era Productions with the final touches (mixing and mastering) done by N.M.G. Music. They came together and produced three intriguing songs that will give you enough time to 'feel the vibe' long before the stars of the genre release music.
With Viking Ding Dong leading the charge in views and engagement, it’s clear that fans are vibing with the riddim’s understated charm. But don’t sleep on Salty or Kerlz—each artist brings a distinct flavor that rounds out the riddim’s appeal.
We’re always on the lookout for riddims that expand the sonic palette of Carnival, and D’Guitar Riddim hits that sweet spot. It’s a testament to the genre’s versatility and the artists’ ability to deliver music that feels good in the body and the soul.
So, whether you're curating your Carnival 2026 playlist or just need a vibe to carry you through the week, give D’Guitar Riddim a spin. And as always—listen, share, amplify. Caribbean music deserves to be heard in all its forms.
Stay tuned to Sokah2Soca for more Carnival 2026 releases, artist spotlights, and cultural commentary. We’re where rhythm lives.
