Tropical House is a style of House music that possesses typical house music characteristics, including synthesizer instrumentation and a 4/4 kick drum pattern. It usually includes tropical instruments such as steel drums, marimba, guitar, saxophone, or even pan flute, and can sometimes use dembow rhythm patterns often attributed to genres such as Dancehall and Reggaeton.
Artists of the genre are often featured at various summer festivals such as Tomorrowland. The genre was popularized by artists including Thomas Jack, Klangkarussell, Kygo, Klingande, Robin Schulz, Bakermat, Matoma, Lost Frequencies, Felix Jaehn, Seeb, and Gryffin. Tropical House hits include Kygo’s “Firestone”, Klingande’s “Jubel”, Felix Jaehn’s remix of “Cheerleader”, Robin Schulz’s remixes of “Waves” and “Prayer in C”, and Lost Frequencies’s remix of “Are You With Me”.
The term “Tropical House” began as a joke by Australian producer Thomas Jack, but has since gone on to gain popularity among listeners.
