Youthful Riddim – Don Fe

From Ireland, Don Fe and Jah Catalyst turn out a compact 2021 set that feels more like a dub session snapshot than a full-riddim parade, with just four cuts and a clear focus on the Junior Dread link-up. “Rise Up” gets the sharpest treatment here, carried by Don Fe’s remix touch, while “Haunted Ghetto” keeps the mood deeper and dustier, and “Dub Youth” pushes the sound further into echo and space. The title cut ties it all together with a lean, forward-moving reggae pulse that leans more rootsy than glossy, the kind of track that leaves you hearing the producer’s hand in every corner. Short, tight, and all business, right down to the dub version at the end.
