LAST 9 is a music blog without genre limitations; its distinctive feature is drop-shape covers and a connection between music and visual components. LAST 9 produces conceptual compilations, each containing a central theme reflected in the music mood. Tropical Lighthouse is the 15th compilation of a series. Cover, promo video, and vinyl disc packing were designed within this project. The project was inspired by tunes and sounds of tropical forests, and the main musical inspiration is an oeuvre of the musician and artist Mtendere Mandowa famous under his stage name Teebs. His music contains special beats and vibrations combined with a light vibe of retro creating alien landscapes in imagination.
