TROPICS Unveils Hypnotic New Single 'Cold Euphoria'

Tropics (Chris Ward), il produttore e musicista britannico con sede a Los Angeles, rilascia il suo nuovo singolo 'Cold Euphoria' il 12 agosto. 'Cold Euphoria' è la quinta offerta del suo atteso album 'Reality Fever', uscito il 3 settembre attraverso la sua immagine Modern Entity.

"Cold Euphoria" continua l'esplorazione di Ward degli estremi emotivi attraverso il suo mix di indie-rock, post-punk ed elettronica. Il singolo esemplifica il tema centrale dell'album di stati contrastanti - la giustaposizione di essere "chilled out" mentre sperimenta "l'ansia sottostante" che definisce l'esperienza "Reality Fever".

Entirely self-written, produced, and recorded in his Los Angeles studio, the track showcases Ward's most dynamic work to date, featuring the grittier, DIY approach that characterizes the upcoming album. 'Cold Euphoria' balances beat-driven catharsis with introspective moments, creating what Ward describes as a "sonic dive into the inner monologue of modern life."

"This album highlights a lot of emotional states but the focus for me was anxiety, spiralling, social pressure and the intensity of inner monologue that grips you and is hard to silence,"explains Ward. "I felt thrashing out and making an album with a hard lean on live instruments again was huge therapy for me, especially as I wanted to create something I could blast in the car."

'Cold Euphoria' follows the release of previous singles 'Turnsick', 'Mind', 'Ionian Mirage' and 'Cherry', building anticipation for the 10-track 'Reality Fever' album. Known for his dreamy, genre-fluid sound, Tropics has earned acclaim from Pitchfork, The Fader, and Resident Advisor, with collaborations including Badbadnotgood and Petite Noir.

'Cold Euphoria' is available now on all streaming platforms. 'Reality Fever' is out September 3rdvia Modern Entity.
