San Francisco natives Beatropolis lay down soulful downtempo perfect for the hippest clubs and lounges in the nation. "Drop" is something that DC downtempo group Thievery Corporation would absolutely covet. With ethereal and otherworldly vocals, inventive rhythms, and magnificent song arrangements Beatropolis layers on the soulful bleeps and blips with bubbly bass lines that keep it all intact. Dub heads will love songs like "Cowboy Song" while drum&bass kids will relax with the uptempo rolling beats of "Mysterioso". Easily a crew that's destined to light up the floor with a sexy and sultry sound, Beatropolis will soon be known for more than just their popular monthly residency "Future Soul" at Amnesia in San Francisco.
