Theophilus London is no stranger to the mix tape. After a
busy couple years of putting out official releases - Lovers Holiday EP in
Feb 2011, Timez Are Weird These Days in July 2011 andTimez
Are Weird These Nights in April of this year - TL returns to the
internets with his highly anticipated mixtape Rose Island Vol. 1,
the follow up to 2010's I Want You mixtape.
Theophilus recorded most of Rose Island during
Christmas in his NYC studio. TL returned to his roots with the goal of getting
back to the basics for the recording of Rose Island Vol. 1. In
typical TL fashion, there's something for everyone on Rose Island Vol.
1 which is filled with hip hop bangers, electronic club tracks, sing
along anthems and, of course, a couple slow jams for the ladies. Rose Island is
an imaginary place in TL's head where he goes when he needs to escape reality
and time. Some of the mix tape highlights include A$AP Rocky, Big Boi, upcoming
Producer Lunice, and many more. He also Covers Pharrell Willams "Take it
off' and reworks Wang Chung's classic "Dance Hall Days."
Always striving for the full experience, Theophilus has
linked with luxury shoe company on the rise Del Toro to design the official
Rose Island Slippers. Now fans can listen in the comfort of a custom TL
slipper, the same slippers he rocked while creating Rose Island Vol 1.
Theophilus London is currently out touring the world and has
already begun work on the follow to Timez Are Weird These Days as well as his
Rose Island Vol. 2 mix tape.
