  • Tropical House with DJ Ferno

    Tropical House with DJ Ferno
    May 7 2021
    DJ Ferno comes on the Music Fringe to discuss touring with Jazzy Jeff, moving to Austin during a pandemic, and discovering his passion for House Music. We also delve into the world of Tropical House music that is egregiously dominated by affluent, amphetamined, finance-bro Europeans who co-opted Caribbean rhythms and tropical vibes to seemingly sell Carnival cruise tickets. We discuss Shazam etiquette, double claps, and the collaborative nature of the Austin community as we throw praise on Madonna, India Arie, and Chance the Rapper. Join the Music Fringe as we dissect the farce of a music genre that is Tropical House, and the vapid and commercialized shell of a scene that it has become.   Check out the playlist for this episode: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2wUVdfqFwm6nvkgaOZoh7d   Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/themusicfringe Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/themusicfringe Twitter - https://twitter.com/themusicfringe   Hot Pie Media is an on-demand digital audio/video entertainment network with interests primarily in the creation of original, relevant, and entertaining podcasts.   https://hotpiemedia.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
