Company Description – Palm Tree Flow Records

Established in January of 2013,

Growing up in a household where music was always playing and looking up to brothers Konshens and Delus (both musicians), Garvin Spence was destined to follow the path set around him. Hailing from Sherlock Crescent in Kingston, Jamaica and currently based out of New Jersey, the young vocalist and song writer, is ready to mature his love of music. 

With music flowing through his household, by ninth grade these influences became present as Rikroot (a variation of “Recruit” a nickname he received in the military) began writing, penning song lyrics infused with stories of everyday life. During his last year of high school, Rikroot started taking music more seriously. In 2005 Rikroot recorded his first single “Get That Weed” followed by “Don’t Worry” “Bonnie and Clyde” “Galang Gal” and Real Badman”. From that point forward, Rikroot realized music was more than just a hobby but a serious passion. 

Recently Rikroot has been emerging on the entertainment scene and has been steadily making his mark through his performances. To date, he has opened for top billing artists such as Serani, Spragga Benz, I-Octane and has performed as a solo act on “Rock with Squeeze” at SOB’s in Manhattan and “Africa Meets Jamaica” at De Island Breeze in New Jersey.

As a multi-talented artist, Rikroot’s style is a diverse mix of dancehall accented with a little Pop, Hip Hop and Reggae. Rikroot acknowledges his influences to listening to R&B, Hip Hop, Soca, his brothers and surprisingly his favorite artist, Dennis Brown. While Rikroot through his brothers and own experiences have had a taste of musical success, is currently back in the studio, perfecting his sound and experimenting with different producers. Although Rikroot is based out of the US he travels frequently to Jamaica to work with local producers as well as connecting with producers worldwide such as French producers Daddy and Hyper from D&H Productions, Konvict Yard Music, Shango Productions, Subkonshus Music, STP Productions, FreshlyNew Productions and LMR Productions. 

Rikroot’s musical goal is to create timeless, quality music that will outlive him and he calls on his love for music and natural talent to achieve such gracious mission.

Jamaican reggae artiste, Dane Ray, is steadily gaining international recognition as an

accomplished music producer and superb vocalist. Yet, this rising star almost never made it in

the business! After completing high school, Dane Ray’s love of music led him to study at the

Edna Manley School of Music. While his family recognized his exceptional talent, they did not

see music as a lucrative career for him. In an act of defiance, Dane Ray ran away from home at

the age of 17 and locked himself away to master his art. Surviving on the streets of Kingston

City, he experienced some of the most traumatic times in his young life, but he stuck to it.

This is how Dane Ray’s career as a music engineer and composer began. Dane Ray built his own

company, &#39;Gesta Music Records&#39; where he produced reggae, dancehall and hip-hop beats for a

number of local artistes such as Deva Bratt, Versatile, Laden, Chino, Iyara, Macka Diamond,

Wasp among others. He scored with some popular riddims such as “Motivation riddim”, “Full

Charge Riddim” and “Inna Di Club Riddim”. This experience led him to work with more

established artists such as Movado, Bunji Garlin, Tommy Lee, Elephant Man, Sizzla, Gyptian,

Vybz Kartel, Demarco and Elephant Man.

Dane Ray finally achieved success as a producer with Wine Up and Jamaican Every Day (both by

Charly Black). Hailed as a heritage song, Jamaican Everyday was loved by Jamaicans at home

and abroad. It held the number one spot in Jamaica for over five months in 2014. This success

has given Dane Ray the opportunity to tour internationally performing in Antigua, Barbados,

Trinidad, Panama, Culun, Chile, and Canada.

Producing music for others is what made him eat but singing has always been Dane Ray’s

passion. As a multi-talented artiste, Dane Ray continued to showcase his charismatic, fresh and

melodious sinjay sound with songs like Top Jockey, Punununu and Dolla Dolla, in the dancehall-

loving markets of Central and South America. Now, Dane Ray is on the verge of an international

breakthrough with his song, &#39;Rodeo&#39;, featuring international rapper Fetty Wap and Mr Wonda.

Dane Ray’s music captures the heart of many and is rapidly developing a fan base. Even with

these accomplishments he knows that he&#39;s only just scratched the surface and only aims to

become better.
