Since 2022, Retrópico has been conducting its sound research by mixing the warmth of brass with synths and house rhythms, embarking the ears in a musical universe as unexpected as it is irresistibly catchy, with the mission of taking the groove ever further. 

Composed of 8 members, a synthesizer and a drummer are surrounded by 2 trumpets, 2 trombones, a baritone saxophone and a sousaphone.

The Paris-based group performs original compositions juggling styles ranging from techno to jazz, dub and synth-wave.


The group is resolutely turned towards the scenic experience, and also goes through recording studios regularly. After a first EP recorded in early 2022 marking the collective's debut and which can be described as Groove Pop, a second opus was recorded in the Rio de Janeiro studios, marking a shift towards a more electro style.
