Tropical House is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in the early 2010s. It combines elements of deep house with tropical and Caribbean influences, creating a laid-back and summery sound. The genre gained popularity through its infectious melodies, relaxed beats, and catchy hooks.

The origins of Tropical House can be traced back to artists like Kygo and Thomas Jack. Kygo, a Norwegian DJ and producer, is often credited as one of the pioneers of the genre. His remixes of popular songs like "I See Fire" by Ed Sheeran and "Younger" by Seinabo Sey garnered attention for their tropical-inspired soundscapes. Similarly, Australian DJ Thomas Jack gained recognition for his mixtapes that blended deep house with tropical vibes.

Key characteristics of Tropical House include the use of steel drums, marimbas, and other percussion instruments commonly associated with Caribbean music. The tempo tends to be slower compared to other electronic genres, allowing for a more relaxed and chilled-out atmosphere. The melodies are often uplifting and catchy, evoking a sense of escapism.

Over time, Tropical House has evolved as more artists have embraced the genre's unique sound. Major labels started signing artists who incorporated tropical elements into their music, leading to increased mainstream exposure for the genre. Artists like Matoma, Felix Jaehn, and Lost Frequencies have all contributed to its growth by releasing chart-topping hits with tropical influences.

One significant album associated with Tropical House is Kygo's debut studio album "Cloud Nine," released in 2016. The album features collaborations with various artists such as John Legend, Foxes, and Conrad Sewell. It received positive reviews for its blend of tropical sounds with pop sensibilities.

Tropical House's impact on the global music scene cannot be understated. Its popularity has led to numerous festivals dedicated solely to this genre emerging around the world.
