Good Morning everyone and welcome to Zugluft.Zugluft is a radio show documenting the life of people in Berlin.
In this episode, @
roxannewith2n joined DJ Garrincha (São Paulo, Brazil) and DJ DR.Sócrates (Vigo, Spain) at the headquarters of their Tropical Diaspora® Records label (@
tdrgo). They dive into an hour-long conversation reflecting on their early years in Berlin, where they both started as the doorkeepers of an illegal bar in Mitte in the 9O's. Igniting a long-lasting friendship, it wasn’t long before they took over the decks together and became ear-openers of music from the Afro-Atlantic diaspora.Their journey led to the creation of their independent pan-African label, marking a shift from the party scene to exploring the "behind the scenes" of this music of their cultural inheritance.Tropical Diaspora® Records is a return to the roots of the music they cherish and a cultural statement to challenge Western appropriation and music dispossession. In their own words: TDR reflects the musical narrative created by forced Africain migration, its collective memory and their powerful music Stories."This episode reveals not just their intention, but a long-life commitment, clearly outlined in their manifesto. Join us for a deep dive into this vital conversation!For more info on Tropical Diaspora® Records :
