House that is slower (110-120 bpm) and has tropical instruments. Music for frat bros to chill to on spring break in Cancun. Artists include Kygo, Thomas Jack, Autograf, and a bunch of imitators.

I don't listen to a lot of it, but it seems that major keys are more prevalent in tropical house compared to other styles of house.

Good god

If you need to be part of that kinda genera, I don't know what to say. I'll bet that if you played me 100 examples of house (and I'm a kinda trained person) it would sound way to similar.

So, was I right, or not? Lived in Nashville/area for a few years, or it is something else? Looks so much like OL the inside.
