NAPALMA
For the first time at Tropical Diaspora and almost in Berlin Napalma the Band with influences from the African diaspora very well known in the electro scene world wide will play specially for the tropical diaspora a very organic set only for our event.
Napalma have you in the palm of their hand, if not eating right out of it, when found in the presence of their beats. Eight years in the business have seen their electro-percussive beats swoon from country to country, igniting dance floors. Without any recorded material, this trio made up of Brazilian Cid Travaglia, Mozambican Ivo Maia and Israeli Ita Mar Weiss have finally decided to deliver their much-anticipated album, Obrigado Crazy Road. Their songs are a rich mixture of musical and cultural influences, languages and originality. Trekking across countries and traversing cross-cultural barriers is what Napalma enjoy doing. They may not know what to expect, but “it feels good when you get to a place and may not understand the language but when we play our music the people move. We reach so many tribes, from people who listen to rock, jazz – and they all feel the beats.”

THE TROPICAL DIASPORA EXPERIENCE
LIVE AND STRICTLY VINYL
*Diaspora is the dispersion of a population from their native land (from Greek διασπορά, “scattering, dispersion”)
About the Music from a diasporic point of view
Recently, scholars have distinguished between different kinds of diaspora, based on its causes such as imperialism, trade or labor migrations, or by the kind of social coherence within the diaspora community and its ties to the ancestral lands. Some diaspora communities maintain strong political ties with their homeland. Other qualities that may be typical of many diasporas are thoughts of return, relationships with other communities in the diaspora, and lack of full assimilation into the host country.With the Tropical Diaspora Roots Sound we try to make reflections on a diasporic phenomenon in the Music. This refection show us that the whole Music we select in our events and all other movements connected to the tropical term come originally from Africa. All music styles at the and come directly from there or was reinvented in an African diaspora in other continents like south America, Carib or north America. Currently we experience the clash of all Diaspora in Europe where all people from all over the world can meet and share his own musical influences with other people. The result of this melting pot we call TROPICAL DIASPORA and fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony that happens in Berlin at the YAAM. Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Tropical Diaspora is. You have to hear it for yourself!
An example of our concept of diaspora in the music, the Tropical Diaspora Vol. 26 in the old YAAM Venue -12 Grad Celsius.Two legends in the Afrobeat together in the stage with a young band with guys from many countries in Europe also Akwasi & Kologbo Feat.
