of Tropique - Buster Goes West - Tokyo band’s playful mash-up of South American, Caribbean, and (spaghetti) Western musical styles

Debuting on Electric Cowbell Records, comes the first full-length release from Tokyo’s “of Tropique!” A marvelous album full of wonderful and eclectic tropical-infused instrumental tunes. Teppei Kondo’s spirited vintage clarinet often takes centerstage, propelled by a pulsating rhythm section that includes guest spots from guitarist Rolando Bruno and percussionist Mutsumi Kobayashi from Japan’s premier neo-Cumbia group, Minyo Crusaders. The sound of the album is impossible to describe in words, it is lovely throughout, and has a playful, exotic vibe that echoes old cartoon and spaghetti Western soundtracks with a particular Afro-Caribbean flair. “Buster Goes West” is a fearless album filled with lots of turns and twists and a special magic like an imagined voyage through tropical islands where each shoreline reveals a zany new discovery that will leave you wonderstruck. of Tropique is a Tokyo based instrumental band formed by four crazy Japanese who play clarinet, guitar, bass, drums, percussion, keys, and lots of other stuff. Their music is pop, funky, exotic, and weird enough to take you on a little trip to the peculiar side of Tokyo, one of the most bizarre cities in the world.

Imagine after the mission in Vienna, Marcus and Hofmann get to the hq safely and the foundation gave them a week off and they have mother daughter bonding in the beach (read the first word again)

I think Hofmann would like fishing, Idk she gave off that vibe, just resting on a sunny day waiting for them fish

God I miss Hofmann

Reverse: 1999 2.2 poster “Tristes Tropiques”

Auto translated caption:

A collaboration across the ocean,

A gamble with an uncertain outcome.

When the sun shines down through the deep green canopy,

Did you know that——

Which beam of light is the "exit"?

Diana dans "Un anglais sous les tropiques".

A nabatean tried to colonise a room meant for a human being, in this case, me.

If it tries to install a religious theocracy I'll sing edge of yawn at it.

Edit :

It's watching me !

Rhea and her clique are everywhere !!

Zmeyevich's "Beaten by the Heat"

Reverse just revealed swimsuit garments as 2.2's new sets of garments... so I put my big guy, Zmeyevich, in one!

Zmei can't handle the heat at all usually, and he doesn't know how to swim either unfortunately, so usually just hides away under an umbrella at the beach :( at least he has ice cream to vent his woes into…

Goran Kajfeš Tropiques - Tell Us - this one tripped *4* of the monitored keywords in my RSS reader, thanks to the RIYL list in the promo copy:

The Swedish quartet Goran Kajfeš Tropiques share their new music We Jazz Records on May 3rd. Tell Us, an album consisting of three long pieces composed by the group, is "slow music" to the bone, a deep body of work utilising the language of jazz as its core mode of communication but echoing way beyond. The quartet is expanded with strings, adding wings to the music and helping it lift off the ground in a personal, highly engaging manner. The Tropiques quartet consists of Goran Kajfeš (trumpet, synthesizer), Alexander Zethson (piano, organ, synthesizer), Johan Berthling (acoustic bass) and Johan Holmegard (drums) – each a key member in the Swedish creative music scene, with experience from groups such as Dungen, Ghosted, Fire!, Gard Nilssen's Supersonic Orchestra, Oddjob, plus many more, including Goran Kajfeš's own Suptropic Arkestra. Their music, groove based and connected to the tradition of "minimalism" has at times been called "hypno-jazz". All three compositions on Tell Us expand on what the Tropiques have done before, building around their signature style and its spacey texture and rooting the musical narrative in strong melody, rolling groove and their collective limitless urge for sonic exploration. As the opener "Unity In Diversity" goes to show, Tropiques's compositions are like flowers opening slowly, each element and layer growing out of what has come before, in a constantly surprising manner. This music, then, becomes the perfect antidote for the quick-fix eye candy rolling down your smartphone screen. This music will take its time, but it'll also create new dimensions with each second as it unfolds.
