TROPICAL HOUSE TRACKS YOU NEED TO HEAR NOW
Swear Like A Sailor, Tep No
The mid-tempo house jam’s sunset-on-the-beach vibe is interrupted by the memorable lyric “Screw you, Taylor Swift.” “It’s a bit of a criticism on that kind of music and the lifestyle that comes with it,” Tep No says. “How you need to look, with the blond hair and looking pretty.”
Try Me, Jason Derulo feat. Jennifer Lopez & Matoma
Jennifer Lopez’s love affair with island rhythms has outlasted a marriage or two. She sounds right at home on Jason Derulo’s breezy new single, produced by tropical-house mastermind Matoma.
Firestone, Kygo feat. Conrad Sewell
The Norwegian DJ’s biggest hit has made him one of the tropical-house genre’s most popular faces.
Jubel, Klingande
The French DJ is the first to question why his triumphant, sax-y dance hit is lumped into the tropical-house movement. “Why is a saxophone tropical?” he asks. “When you’re listening to it you feel like you’re on the beach, so maybe that’s why?”
Waves, Mr. Probz (Robin Schulz Remix)
Without the Robin Schulz remix, we probz would have never heard of this Dutch singer.
Cheerleader, OMI (Felix Jaehn Remix)
Three years after OMI released the original, the Felix Jaehn tropical house remix sent it to No. 1 around the world, including for six weeks in Canada.
