3 Strike Riddim – Sparka Production

3 Strike Riddim lands in that lean, early-2014 dancehall pocket where the production does the talking: Sparka Production keeps it tight across four cuts, with a sharp, no-frills groove that leaves plenty of room for the artists to swing. Nakis opens with “Try To Hype, ” while Rayonne Hype’s “Calm Down” and Shanti Force’s “Grow Suh” push the attitude in different directions, riding the same clipped rhythm with enough room for each voice to cut through. Stylus closes it out on “Buss Dem Head, ” a title that matches the riddim’s harder edge and gives the set its most aggressive finish. It’s a short, straight-riding selector’s package, and the instrumental itself has the kind of punch that keeps the whole thing moving.
