Goran Kajfeš started Tropiques in 2011 with the idea of creating a combo that would approach music-making in a minimalist way – grounding it in a basic groove, patiently, slowly evolving forms, melodic improvisation and mantra-like ostinatos unfolding throughout the monumental setting of electroacoustic textures. The band's music is often described as “hypno-jazz” and the members are important protagonists of the Swedish scene and part of remarkable stories such as Dungen, Ghosted, Fire!, Gard Nilssen's Supersonic Orchestra, Oddjob...

After their debut release Enso (a single 50-minute track!) and the follow-up Into The Wild, the album Tell Us came out this year on the Finnish label We Jazz. A project of three longer tracks - “slow music” in its essence - the quartet has soared to new heights by adding a complement of strings. They will travel even further in this direction in Ljubljana, with a unique, exclusive and one-off venture as the local musicians violinist Ana Kravanja and violist Barbara Grahor Vovk join the string section.
