Their music continues developing and transforming.

Brazilian Cid Travaglia is the driving force and co-producer behind the powerful electronic programming and plays various percussions on the djembe, shakers, whistles, Sample Pad and recycled instruments such a construction helmet. In concerts and in the studio, NAPALMA is a dynamic and collaborative project, with a network of different vocalists and musicians, while maintaining the multicultural identity and energy for the dance floors.

Currently they have been working together with Senegalese singer Abass Ndiaye, that brought lyrics in Wolof, influences and melodies from West Africa, and with the Brazilian singer, DJ and percussionist DA MATTA.Colorful melodies and beats powered by captivating electronic arrangements acquire original forms, based on fidelity to a variety of percussive beats and voices. This surprisingly creates a trance.

For a complete and comprehensive experience, you need to attend their shows. In a few seconds, relax, you'll find yourself dancing and never stop!

The Highlights on the latest Releases are the Music Video in the Amazon Rainforest for ‘Sunu Waref’ and the EP & Music Video ‘URBAN ART Tribute’.
