Tropical Escape Riddim – Chimney Records

Tropical Escape Riddim is a 2012 Chimney Records juggling that brought together Alaine, Ce’Cile, Christopher Martin, Chronixx, D Major, I-Octane, Kabaka Pyramid, Queen Ifrica, Romain Virgo and Tarrus Riley on one bright, melodic reggae set. Alaine’s Amazing opens the sequence, while Ce’Cile’s Life Is So Precious, Chronixx’s Ain’t Know Giving In, I-Octane’s What About The Poor and Tarrus Riley’s Gimme Likkle One are among the tracks that help define the release. Chimney built the riddim during the label’s strong early run, and the project is often remembered as one of its key one-drop excursions, balancing polished vocals with a breezy, tropical feel.
