Tropic

Brooklyn-based duo, Tropic, is what happens when electronic producer and DJ, Phuse, and queer Filipino R&B singer/songwriter Jo-B Sebastian join forces. Equal parts nostalgic throwback and futuristic daydreaming, Tropic is fast becoming an unstoppable force in 2023. Their lead single ‘Wildest Dreams’ from their latest EP was added to Spotify's New Music Friday editorial playlists in 10 countries while their song ‘Alive’, also taken from the same EP, is on constant rotation on 3 Spotify editorial playlists. The ‘Wildest Dreams’ EP has amassed more than 2 million streams and counting since its release. Their single, Control, was selected by Kitsuné’s Pat Lok for his House of Jade mix for 88Rising. Placing Tropic amongst artists like Tokimonsta & Robotaki, the mix highlights the best of Asia’s up-and-comers. At the close of 2021 the Philippines’ biggest music channel, MYX, invited Tropic to perform for their MYX TRAKS Live performance series, introducing Tropic to the channel’s 1.4 million subscribers.
