(2011)


Lush synths, plenty of reverb, dream inducing waves of electronics, these lay the foundation for Tropics' latest effort.

His embracing of his vocals and the introduction of the multi-instrument approach bring a welcomed human element to his tracks. There's a little nod to the blue eyed soul of the 70s as well. The waves may not be so chill but the jams are there.
