ndieMusicFlix describes Roman Angelos’ “Tropical Nites” as a richly cinematic album full of evocative soundscapes and meticulously crafted compositions. The project, led by multi-instrumentalist and producer Rich Bennett, draws on influences from film scores, noir soundtracks, and classic exotica to create a deeply immersive listening experience.

The review highlights the album’s standout tracks, including “Motorbike Journey”, a psychedelic, xylophone-driven opener that captures the feeling of a lone protagonist traversing vast, open landscapes. “Regretful Echoes” introduces a more introspective tone, layering natural percussion with melancholic melodies to evoke a sense of longing.

Tracks like “Bella in Nighttown” deliver funky, samba-inspired grooves, while “Lady of Singapore” leans into suave, cinematic tones reminiscent of spy thrillers. The album closes with the playful, nostalgic vibe of “Soft Drink Session”, rounding out a collection that feels both adventurous and deeply atmospheric.
