Tropez

Tropez is the conclusion of 15 years spent touring the mainstream music market, and sharing the stage at major festivals that include Hangout Fest, Life is Beautiful, Sundance, and Made In America. That time was frequently spent feeling a sense of separation, of outsider status. In working through this with a therapist, Tropez represents a potential musical outlet for those feelings. In Tropez’s own words:

“The climate of the world we live in, the exponential growth of technology, and becoming a parent have filled my notepad with words to attach to melodies.”

The first single lifted from a forthcoming debut album, Slow It Down is produced by Grammy-winning producer Ben H Allen III, who is notable for working with Washed Out, Animal Collective, Gnarls Barkley, and Neon Indian. The impact of that production is audible, without overwhelming Tropez’s own style.

Slow It Down moves with a sense of slow drama, a quiet disco style infusing the bass line, strings, and synths. Loose percussion still manages to deliver a punchy feel, and gently strummed guitars give the piece a relaxed, transportive feel. Tied together with a yearning vocal, the whole thing feels like the sunset on the beach… Eminently classy, yet instantly appealing.

American artist Tropez makes his official introduction into the music world with his gorgeous single Slow It Down, the first single to be lifted from his upcoming debut album.

What I like the most about this song is its groove and feel-good vibes, making it perfect to get you in a weekend mood in no time. Produced by GRAMMY award winning producer Ben H. Allen III (Washed Out, Animal Collective, Gnarls Barkley, Neon Indian...), Slow It Down finds the talented artist beautifully showcasing his gorgeous vocals - packed with soul and emotion - and storytelling abilities over an infectious production. Apart from his lush falsetto, I am particularly fond of the groovy bass and guitar riffs which are seamlessly paired with bright, shimmering synths and catchy drum patterns that together create an overall warm, feel-good atmosphere perfect for a carefree summer's day. - Caesar Live N Loud

Tropez´s “Slow It Down” grows a disco sound with a voice line carrying the emotional cadence and the melodic modulations while flowing over an Indietronica rhythmic structure. The vocal transmits an emotional lyric a moment in time when a relationship is moving too quickly. He states his intentions of taking a pause, having patience, and making things work more bearable. - Visual Atelier
