On Tropical Music by DJhamaradio

The world of Tropical music is an amorphous thing because it isnt quite a genre its more like a general umbrella term coined by Djs and collectors. It is music that is coming out of more forgotten none english speaking parts of the world, even through some of it is made in the English speaking world for none english speakers. I can also describe it as largely coming from the Caribbean, South America and Central America, and the west coast of Africa but this doesn't mean some exceptions don't exist for example Salsa is churned out from the American east coast, and we have cases of Japanese bands who can hold it down playing Calypso. Traditionally Tropical joints are not as lokced into a groove like most funk is so I wouldnt include Afrobeat or some of the more James Brown inspired African and Carribean fare which has been mined by collectors for years. The tropical world leans more on an African inspired swing that is pretty alien if you compared it to say a Meters record. It is music you really never hear in the USA unless you are at a Haitian home or a Puerto Rican home. Its music that represents completely different musical paradigm, one that most westeners would never encounter and wouldnt have a context to make sense of. One think that is a fact is that it is some of the grooviest most ecstatic dancefloor music. A Gwo-Ka song played in a Techno or House set creates such ecstacy and everything else pales in comparison. For tonights show, here is the playlist.

The Calypsonians, 2020⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣Lutalo Masimba is Brother Resistance. He has been performing as a poet since 1974. Together with Brother Shortman and the Network Riddim Band, they refined and shaped a hybrid of soca and rap that they called rapso that had been explored by Lancelot Layne.⁣ ⁣Resistance sang Compress for the 2020 calypso season at Kaiso House, which he has run since 1990 when it was known as the NCC tent.⁣ ⁣He leads the Carnival stakeholder body, the Trinidad Unified Calypsonians Organisation (TUCO).⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣#calypso #kaiso #rapso #tent #music #Carnival #singer #performance #trinidad #trinidadandtobago #tuco #kaisohouse #portofspain #queensparksavannah⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣The Calypsonians 2020 is an attempt to survey and record in visuals the calypsonians working in tents for this year’s Carnival season.⁣ ⁣It is an imperfect record, dependent on the willingness of individuals to participate and tents to accommodate the project. These are the results. (at Queen's Park Savannah) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9SxWEnJiGc/?igshid=15b4vvhlx35dl

Kalenderblätter 28/07/2019 - 30/365 2017 | Lancelot Layne - Blow Away Cree Records Never heard. Musik, absolut passend zu den aktuellen Temperaturen. Liste? Nicht zwingend. Disclaimer: Was das hier ist? Nachdem ich mir im letzten Jahr diesen kleinen Kalender gekauft hatte, kam mir die Idee, diesen auch wirklich zu „nutzen“. Außer jeden Tag drauf zu schauen, ein Kalenderblatt abzureißen, nahm ich mir vor, das jeweilige Album am gleichen Tag auch zu hören. Gleichzeitig schaue ich nach ob ich das Album in meiner Sammlung habe und wenn es mir gefällt, oder ich tatsächlich „schwerwiegende“ Lücken in meinem Regal entdecke, dann kauf‘ ich das Album nach. Auf jeden Fall eine nette Art, neue Musik kennen zu lernen. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0c0pXtob_5/?igshid=wm87qu7gucx4

TRAVEL ON FURTHER Lutalo Masimba aka #BrotherResistance There are no words to describe what this great soul in human form has meant to me.. + to us as Trinbagonians.. + African descendants.. I will just post some of his great works + hope they tell enough of the story today.. Born in East Dry River, Trinidad, Brother Resistance became, together with Brother Shortman, the lead singer of the Network Riddim Band, a Trinidadian ensemble, in 1979. They developed a hybrid of soca and rap that they called "rapso", a genre for which they credited Lancelot Layne as originator. The band was considered subversive by the authorities and their rehearsal space and offices were destroyed by the police in June 1983. The group released their first album, Roots of de Rapso Rhythm, in 1984, which was followed by Rapso Explosion and Rapso Takeover in 1985 and 1986 respectively. International performances brought recognition from overseas, changing the attitude of the T&T government, who selected Brother Resistance as their cultural delegate to the World Festival of Youth and Students in Korea. He appeared at New York's New Music Festival in 1992 and in 1993 at the International Dub Poetry Festival in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He went on to lead + commit to many cultural organizations, events + initiatives including his last post as the President of the Trinidad and Tobago Unified Calypsonians' Organization @tucoofficial He will be sorely missed + remembered fondly as a man around town.. a man of the people.. a warrior.. an orator.. a historian.. a brother and amazing musical spirit + friend to all #brotherresistance #rapso #culturalicon #caribbean #musiclovers🎶 #caribbeanmusic #socamusic #reggaemusic #dancehallmusic #reggaetón #latincaribbean #miamicarnival #vibes (at Lancelot Lane) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRTht7BA0jp/?utm_medium=tumblr

Tropische Soul

Calypsoul 70 - Caribbean Soul & Calypso Crossover 1969-1979 uit 2008 is een verzameling uitgebracht door Strut vol met tropische soulliedjes uit het Caribisch gebied. Er zit ook een Hollandse versie bij en die komt uit Sint Maarten. Het zijn de St. Maarten’s The Rolling Tones met het nummer It’s a Feeling. Niet echt super, maar je wordt er wel vrolijk van.

De band Biosis Now streeft naar een onafhankelijk eiland en zingen er Independent Bahamas over.

Lancelot Layne zingt een rap-achtig soul calypso nummer, getiteld You Think it Sorft!

Het laatste nummer dat ik jullie wil laten horen is The Little You Say van The Revolution Of St. Vincent . Ware tropische funk!
