From the streets of Port Moresby to the islands of Manus, from the Jungles of the Markham Valley to the coastal village of Gabagaba, comes a ground breaking record by Melbourne based producer and traditional log drum master Airileke. Sample based hiphop production, with fierce log drumming, PNG chants, atmospheric sound scapes and samples of West Papua's OPM are just some of what you can expect to hear. This is the new sound of urban Papua New Guinea. Born of PNG and Oz roots Airileke brings a sound that is as futuristic in its ideas and beats as it is embedded in an ancient Melanesian culture.
