Silent Grove/Cafe Shop Riddim – DJ Tropyx Studios

2023 reggae from DJ Tropyx Studios, Silent Grove/Cafe Shop Riddim brings a compact set of six artists across 10 tracks, with Mandella Linkz on Loving Can’t Done, Chico B turning up twice, and Cherise King on Bring Back Those Days. DJ Tropyx handles the production and also appears on Come Home, Talk to Me, and the two version cuts, Silent Grove Riddim and Cafe’ Shop Riddim, which gives the release a more personal stamp. Honey Bee’s Losing My Mind and Giddeon Stain’s Top Ranking help round out a lineup that leans melodic and rootsy rather than heavy and boisterous. The project runs just under 46 minutes and was issued in February 2023, making it a neat early-year reggae drop from a producer clearly shaping his own riddim identity.
