Is Tropical Embarks on First Ever USA Tour—Plus Free Download And Another NSFW Video
Warning for those getting ready to peep this video for Is Tropical's "Lies." The video was directed by Jonathan Leder from Jacques Magazine. Jacques, if you’re not familiar, is “America’s new erotic quarterly” which means unless your boss just doesn’t give a shit, we’d think twice before loading this one up. We’re digging it and the song too, so peep it if you can. Or better yet, catch Is Tropical live. A few days after the album drops (via Kitsuné / Cooperative Music / Downtown Records on October 14th) the band will bounce around the USA for some shows—several dates of which are part of the Kitsuné Club Tour featuring RAC, Database, Beataucue, French Horn Rebellion, etc on the bills.
Is Tropical made the original, the Polarset remix and the Moonlight Matters remix of “The Greeks” available as a free MP3. Here you go:

In case you’re not one of the 2.4 million viewers whom have already watched, here’s the video for “The Greeks,” which was directed by French hotshots Megaforce. There’s not a boy alive that isn’t going to love this one.
And here’s a hilariously trippy video for Moonlight Matters remix and another video “featuring” Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen of their B-side “Tan Man.”
