Tropics & Joseph Russell: Music To… Get Tropical To With Friends by i-D published on 2015-04-30T11:10:53Z Multi-instrumentalist Chris Ward AKA Tropics makes really great music. His magical electronica inspired by the Beach Boys, Rhys, Peter Gabriel and Little Dragon exists somewhere in-between deep sleep and REM, managing to be drowsily lucid all at once. We jumped at the chance to feature Ward's "Groovy, funky, soulful, danceable" Tropical mix, created especially by him for i-D. Says Ward of the mix: "Tropics & Friends is a monthly night myself and Joseph Russell (Early Sounds Collective) started putting on at various venues in London last year. It's a great vibe and I love getting people involved to feature alongside us. The night is kind of an excuse to get all our friends together who live around London and have a good knees up! We have no genre exclusivity, we just play what we're influenced by and believe to be good music. Groovy, funky, soulful, danceable.” Connect to i-D's world! facebook.com/iDmagazineofficial twitter.com/i_D http://i-d.co Genre music to Comment by Rexartis Awesomeee! 2016-06-15T13:58:13Z Comment by Monster Land King Aw yea this is the good stuff.
