We are pleased to announce the launch of another edition of our record collection Bugiganga Tropical. This record collection with special cover designs is based on Tropical Diaspora® Records principles creating a narrative about the people that crossed the Atlantic from Africa to the Americas and gave rise to different cultural expressions that reflect both the horror and hope of that experience. In creating such a narrative we are however aware that the tools we use to communicate our idea and mission are shaped by the historical narrative of the imperialist powers; the hegemonic role that, for example, language play: French, English and Portuguese in Africa; Spanish, Portuguese and English in the Americas.
Tropical Diaspora Records welcomes a new member in our musical universe, the Band Forró de Cabeça!
Originated in our regular Tropical Diaspora Party in Berlin this project is one we were waiting for since the beginning of our journey as recording company. The Tropical Diaspora Party in Berlin was the space and laboratory for many local bands where artistic freedom and joy came together. These Bands were playing in the most relevant venues of the German capital.
One party worth to mention was the Tropical Diaspora Party Vol.39 at the venue BiNuu. The experiment was to have for the first time ever two bands on the stage playing Cumbia and Forró. We call this joint venture FORRÚMBIA, an event to promote those two great rhythms from South-America. This was the kick start for the new record to be released soon by Tropical Diaspora Records honoring the original new roots music from Brazil.
Includes unlimited streaming of Bugiganga Tropical Vol.3 - 7" w/ Double Cover

(Intro)
Tenho saudade de uma abelha
Trabalhadeira chamada de Mangangá
Roupa lustrosa, galega ou preta
Procura sempre uma loca pra morar
Tenho saudade de uma abelha
Trabalhadeira chamada de Mangangá
Roupa lustrosa, galega ou preta
Procura sempre uma loca pra morar
Avoa cedo pra natureza
Uma flor de maracujá quer encontrar
Se for melão, pura beleza
O seu zumbido de longe sinto vibrar
Avoa cedo pra natureza
Uma flor de maracujá quer encontrar
Se for melão, pura beleza
O seu zumbido de longe sinto vibrar
Se não tiver a Mangangá a gente logo vê
Maracujá na insistência pode até florescer
Mas, porém se enquanto isso ela não voltar
Só flores murchas pelo chão, nenhuma fruta a flutuar
O veneno nas plantações, também o fumacê
Maltrata a mata, as abelhas além de eu e você
De Mandaçaia, Jandaíra, Europa, Aripuá
Jataí, Jatí , Cupira, Uruçu e Mangangá
Tenho saudade de uma abelha
Trabalhadeira chamada de Mangangá
Roupa lustrosa, galega ou preta
Procura sempre uma loca pra morar
Tenho saudade de uma abelha
Trabalhadeira chamada de Mangangá
Roupa lustrosa, galega ou preta
Procura sempre uma loca pra morar
Avoa cedo pra natureza
Uma flor de maracujá quer encontrar
Se for melão, pura beleza
O seu zumbido de longe sinto vibrar
Avoa cedo pra natureza
