In Tropical Renditions Christine Bacareza Balance examines how the performance and reception of post-World War II Filipino and Filipino American popular music provide crucial tools for composing Filipino identities, publics, and politics. To understand this dynamic, Balance advocates for a "disobedient listening" that reveals how Filipino musicians challenge dominant racialized U.S. imperialist tropes of Filipinos as primitive, childlike, derivative, and mimetic. Balance disobediently listens to how the Bay Area turntablist DJ group the Invisibl Skratch Piklz bear the burden of racialized performers in the United States and defy conventions on musical ownership; to karaoke as affective labor, aesthetic expression, and pedagogical instrument; to how writer and performer Jessica Hagedorn's collaborative and improvisational authorial voice signals the importance of migration and place; and how Pinoy indie rock scenes challenge the relationship between race and musical genre by tracing the alternative routes that popular music takes. In each instance Filipino musicians, writers, visual artists, and filmmakers work within and against the legacies of the U.S./Philippine imperial encounter, and in so doing, move beyond preoccupations with authenticity and offer new ways to reimagine tropical places.

Masalimuot ang pinagdadaanan ni Max Martin. Ang kanyang karera sa pamamahayag ay bumabagsak. Ang kanyang buhay may asawa ay nanganganib at ang kanyang dalawang kagiliw-giliw na mga anak ay nasa malayo. Ang pagkakataong bisitahin ang lokal na Art Gallery ay nagtulak sa kanya upang hanapin ang pintor na sa tingin niya ay lubos na napapanahon. Sa pagtahak sa landas na ito, dinala siya ng paglalakbay niya sa New Zealand at sa ibayong kontinente. Nagpasya si Max na buhayin ang kanyang malamyang karera sa pagsusulat sa pamamagitan ng pagsulat ng isang nobela na ang pamagat ay Beautiful Brushstrokes. Itinala niya ang lahat ng kanyang pagsasaliksik sa kanyang kwaderno at kalaunan ay natuklasan niyang ang kanyang ginagawa ay nagiging higit pa sa pangkaraniwang proyekto. Anong uri ng likhang sining ang nahanap niya sa galeriyang ito at saan siya dinala ng mga bakas nito? Ano ang kanyang mga nahanap na nagpabago sa pananaw niya sa buhay at bakit siya nasadlak sa kabalintunaan ng mapaglarong tadhana na nagresulta sa aklat na ito? Isusulat ni Max ang nobelang ito at mahahanap niya ang pintor na ito. ‘Yan ang una niyang hakbang upang maiahon ang kanyang karera. Makisali sa paglalakbay na ito upang madiskubre niya hindi lamang ang sarili niya kundi ang marami pang iba tungo sa kanyang tagumpay—o kabiguan! Ito ang ika-9 na nailathalang aklat ni Marshall. Sa paglilipat-lipat mula Tula at Tuluyan (Prosa), pinananatili niyang buhay ang parehong uri ng akda habang sinusuportahan ang bawat isa ng liksi ng isip na nagiibayo sa kanya upang magtrabaho ng walang kapaguran. Kung nabasa mo na ang isa sa mga aklat niya, hahanap-hanapin mo ang natitirang adka niya. Ang kanyang panulat ay nakakalulong.

Filipino national hero Jose Rizal wrote The Social Cancer in Berlin in 1887. Upon his return to his country, he was summoned to the palace by the Governor General because of the subversive ideas his book had inspired in the nation. Rizal wrote of his consequent persecution by the church: "My book made a lot of noise; everywhere, I am asked about it. They wanted to anathematize me ['to excommunicate me'] because of it ... I am considered a German spy, an agent of Bismarck, they say I am a Protestant, a freemason, a sorcerer, a damned soul and evil. It is whispered that I want to draw plans, that I have a foreign passport and that I wander through the streets by night ..."
