TROPICALNI (LP)

Keope is the musical brainchild of Toni Bruna and Marcus Rossknecht. With the aim to record an album they have met in an abandoned quarry on the Slovenian border. The outcome Tropicalni seems to exist in a vacuum. Stylistically, all tracks here owe something to multiple genres and reference points - from folk, Balearic, psychedelic and electronica - but none really fit well. Synths drift in breezily, floating around the wistful melodies; acoustic guitars sparkle, while flutes & the beats hint at a deeper connection to dance rituals. Limited 12 inch vinyl edition of 250 only coming in a handmade and numbered artwork. Each record is highly unique as it goes through an artisan process of hand-printing, folding, glueing and numbering which highlights the aim for creating unique and long-lasting pieces of art.
