Cara A • El Raval

Mataron A Juan Andrés by Super Spanish Combo • from district of El Raval in Barcelona – Spain
We know the Super Spanish Combo since the beginning in Barcelona and at least we could realize a big live show with those guys in Berlin at the Tropical Diaspora Vol.37 last year. We define the band as a “Band with responsibility and conscience” since the Combo have an affinity to texts with strong content. To point this great combo characteristic just let´s take the case of Juan Andrés Benítez from the district of Raval in Barcelona. Juan Andres Benitez Alvarez was 50 years old, born in Seville and lived more then 10 years in Barcelona, where he had two commercial establishments in the area known as ‘Gayxample’ of Barcelona. A video shows how four policemen kicked, punched, kneed and kill the man as he “squealed like a pig”, how one of the neighbours who filmed the event put it.
We are very proud to press this protest latin song for all Juan Andrés every where in the world!

Lado B • Guaianases

Grilos Da Vida (Nego Vem Sambá) by Banda Jardes • 1976 Original Samba Rock from district of Guaianases in São Paulo – Brazil
Many stories around this records exists and in São Paulo in the vinyl stores everybody know this record that is practically impossible to be found. One of the stories told by Regis himself is that somebody in that times as the band was very known in the city has made thousands of illegal copies of the record and as the band, producer and Regis began to search for the responsible and as the pressure got to strong those guys throw all records that had not been sold in the river Tiete. Anyway this year i meet Regis in São Paulo to get his only one copy of the record, he has made it clear, the record is only borrowed to Tropical Diaspora Records for the project also we will press this song by our label soon. We will take it from this records that is in a very good condition. The record is now in Berlin and before we press a new 7 inch with this groove, the audience here will have the opportunity to hear and dance this great samba rock by the Jardes Band.

Cover Design by Matthias Beck – www.estudiorosebud.com
With this record we are pleased to announce the launch of our record collection Bugiganga Tropical. This is a 4 records collection with special cover designs based on Tropical Diaspora´s Records concept and realized by the designer Matthias Beck from Estudio Rosebud based in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. With plants related to the African-Diaspora peoples work in the Americas the cover art should help the beholder to remember why Africans were brought along to the Americas. For us the connection to the cultural and in our case musical legacy related to this movements from mainland Africa. This first cover art with a coffee plant remember us the kind of work Africans did in many regions in South-America, the same regions where those rhythms were created trough the interaction between Africans and or Europeans and or Native south Americans. He hope you enjoy this records as we do! Dj Garrincha.

about

This is the special remastered version of the samba rock classic direct from the peripheries of São Paulo City.

A gem is gone. After a long illness (António) Regis Moreno passed away in São Paulo. Regis was one of the greatest representatives of samba-rock, the musical blend of samba, funk and rock that has come to characterize a specific time in Brazilian popular music. Having emerged from the poor black peripheries of the city, Regis could fill with his band Banda Jardes big concert halls in the 1980’s. We at Tropical Diaspora Records had the immense privilege to know Regis and his music firsthand. We published on vinyl a reissue of his massive hit “Grilos da Vida” (today sold-out). “Grilos da Vida” is a song that represents like few others the true spirit of samba-rock with its distinctive guitar take. Regis had the opportunity to enjoy with us the renaissance of his music and further collaborations were planned. Today it is no longer possible. A beautiful soul is gone. So generous that he has left us to enjoy the soundtrack of our lives; these are the Grilos da Vida.

// Português

O Baile acabou. Após uma longa doença (António) Regis Moreno faleceu em São Paulo. Regis foi um dos maiores representantes do samba-rock, a mistura musical de samba, funk e rock que passou a caracterizar uma época específica da música popular brasileira. Tendo surgido das periferias negras pobres da cidade, Regis pôde lotar com sua banda Banda Jardes grandes salas de concerto nos anos 1980. Nós da Tropical Diaspora Records tivemos o imenso privilégio de conhecer Regis e sua música em primeira mão. Publicamos em vinil uma reedição de seu grande sucesso “Grilos da Vida” (hoje esgotado). “Grilos da Vida” é uma música que representa como poucos o verdadeiro espírito do samba-rock com seu toque de guitarra diferenciado. Regis teve a oportunidade de desfrutar conosco do renascimento de sua música e outras colaborações foram planejadas. Hoje não é mais possível. Uma bela alma se foi. Tão generoso que nos deixou para curtir a trilha sonora de nossas vidas; estes são os Grilos da Vida.

lyrics

Vem nego vem sambar Vem nego vem sambar Vem esquecer os grilos dessa vida E as estradas que ficaram para trás A grana que você não teve ainda Mas pode ter se for um bom rapaz Nego vem Vem nego vem sambar Vem nego vem sambar Vem curtir meu samba na avenida Vem sorrir para não chorar Vem viver correndo pela vida Vem cantar meu canto popular Nego vem Vem nego vem sambar Vem nego vem sambar Sustenta nega Vem nego vem sambar Vem nego vem sambar Vem curtir meu samba na avenida Vem sorrir para não chorar Vem viver correndo pela vida Vem cantar meu canto popular Meu nego vem Vem nego vem sambar Vem nego vem sambar Vem sambar O samba esse balanço nego Meu nego, nego vem sambar. O samba esse balanço nego Meu nego, nego vem sambar. O samba esse balanço nego Meu nego, nego vem sambar. O samba esse balanço nego Vem nego vem sambar O samba esse balanço nego Meu nego, nego vem sambar.meuip.co
