Stones Throw recording artist and white-boy boogie-man James Pants just dropped a brand-new EP tailor-made for your summer’s fiestas. The New Tropical EP features six tracks of instrumental get-down goodness, and finds Mr. Pants trying on a few new hats, namely those of bass-centric booty tune producers, while still keeping to his roots in the soulful R&B-loving sect of beatmakers. Check out the artwork and tracklist, and listen to New Tropical‘s first track, below.

1. Driftwood
2. 1988
3. Hanama Beat
4. This Crazy Sound
5. Diamond Head
6. Say Yes
