Shortly before he died, Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto performed a piano concert called Kagami – which was filmed and recorded with mixed reality technology. Thanks to that, the audience can see and hear Sakamoto play on a level of reality which pushes the boundaries of what a concert can be. Todd Eckert was a friend of Sakamoto and through his company Tin Drum, is pioneering this tech for the stage. The tragic heroine Violetta, from La Traviata, is one of the most iconic roles in opera.  Samantha Clarke is reprising her much acclaimed performance as the ill-fated courtesan for Opera Australia's La Traviata and explains why Violetta is so dear to her. She also sings the breathtaking aria Addio del passato for us, accompanied by Brian Castles-Onion.For generations, Yolngu met and traded with other seafaring people in the top end of the continent. From this, language and songs, stories and more was exchanged. Now the Yolngu songman and dancer Banula  Marika and choreographer Rachael Wallis are collaborating with First Nations artists from Taiwan, including Suming Rupi … for a show called Gapu Ngupan (Chasing the Rainbow) at Asia TOPA in Melbourne.

Becoming a music artist is more than just what's on stage, Cianna and Olivia share their thoughts and experience as they build their future in the worlds of music and education.

Tory Johnston is an enrolled member of the Quinault Indian Nation and a lecturer in American Indian Studies at the University of Washington. He grew up in the Quinault Indian reservation on the Washington coast with a love for music, whether it was the loud guitar riffs of Metallica or the jazz improvisation of Thelonious Monk.  In 2023, with no prior experience as a radio DJ, he applied to work on a new show Seattle radio station KEXP was launching that appealed to his academic and personal explorations of Indigenous music. He got the job and is today the co-host and DJ of “Sounds of Survivance.” Airing on Mondays, each episode exposes listeners to artists spanning musical continents and styles, from classical piano compositions by Navajo musician Connor Chee to thrash metal songs performed by New Zealand band Alien Weaponry in English and Te reo Māori. Johnston joins us to talk about the show’s eclectic catalog and what’s currently on his music playlist.

The literal translation of his Arabic name, Handsome Tiger is the moniker of Vancouver-based producer and DJ Hussein Elnamer. Hussein got his start in metal bands, found dubstep and is currently fusing the genres big low-end and 140 tempos with global club and bass rhythms in an effort to “decolozine the dancfloor.” Hussein talks about growing up mixed-race in Canada – his father is from Libya and his mother is Anishinaabe Métis – and how he's fusing indigenous sounds of pow-wow drums, chants and more into underground bass. We also talk about his artist journey, the Canadian festival circuit, the importance of dance and ritual rhythms and how connecting with his ethnic background has shaped his sound. Taped live at Bass Coast Festival in Merritt BC! Hosted by Vivian Host (aka DJ Star Eyes). For more info and extras, visit Ravetothegrave.org or Instagram @ravetothe.grave.

When it's most relevant, Indigenous art can force people to confront important and tough issues. It's also a creative window to view the artist's individuality and identity. We'll mark that creativity on this Pride Month episode, talking with Indigenous LGBTQ+ and Two-Spirit artists about the intersection of two driving issues of identity that are both a celebration and a source of contention. GUESTS Melody McKiver (Obishikokaang First Nation), assistant professor of Indigenous Music with the Desautels Faculty of Music at the University of Manitoba and a member of the Mizi'iwe Aana Kwat (LGBTQ2S+ Council) with the Grand Council Treaty #3 Cray Bauxmont-Flynn (Delaware Tribes of Indians and Cherokee), founder and chief creative officer of Indigenous Arts Alliance Evan Benally Atwood (Diné), queer filmmaker photographer Neebinnaukzhik Southall (Chippewas of Rama First Nation), owner of Neebin Studios

In this archival radio interview with Earth Songs (modern indigenous music), host Alexis Salih sits down with Paul LaRoche, the founder of the American Indian group, Brulé. LaRoche candidly shares his life journey, from being a Native American child adopted by a non-indigenous family in Southwest Minnesota to his powerful and inspiring reunion with his true heritage, a moment that shaped his unmistakable musical style, fusing elements of both his formative and native cultures. The interview presents a deep insight into how LaRoche unfolded his unique creativity, combining traditional Native American music with the sounds he grew up with, effortlessly straddling the delicate balance between cultural respect and inspired music production. Discover the gripping story behind the birth of some of Brulé's most celebrated albums, notably 'Hidden Heritage' and their 22nd CD release 'Tribe'. Listen to the fascinating tale behind 'Tribe', initially born as a soundtrack for a Native American Broadway musical and then shelved after a mixed reception. Rediscovered years later, 'Tribe' was reborn, affirming its relevance and freshness in the music industry. Throughout the episode, listeners will be treated to snippets of Brulé's enthralling music, a testament to their unique contemporary and traditional Native American sound fusion. This episode is a compelling odyssey that follows the legacy of Paul LaRoche and Brulé's movement within the music industry, forging a new music genre while illuminating poignant aspects of personal and cultural growth.

Justis Brokenrope has collected vinyl by Native musicians for the past decade. Now he shares that music with the digital world. “You can listen to music nowadays without ever touching a CD, a record, or a tape,” said Brokenrope, who is Sicangu Lakota. “It's just so digital and ubiquitous all the time. But to hold the physical thing and then to see yourself represented in that, and to see your community, your people, your family represented in that, I think that's just so important for us.” A self-described shaggy-haired kid, Justis Brokenrope started collecting vinyl records near his hometown in rural Nebraska. As a young musician, he played in punk and metal bands touring the U.S. and Europe. He was in a record store in Providence, R.I., about ten years ago where he found a compilation record consisting of Indigenous North American music, and inspiration struck. “I've heard a lot of powwow music and ceremonial music. But then to know that there were these artists back then, pre-social media, internet, everything, obviously, just in their really, sometimes small and very isolated communities,” explained Brokenrope.“They got a guitar somewhere or traded something for a guitar, and then their music was documented by something like the [Canadian Broadcast Corporation]. And so those records exist. And then that was just like, mind blowing to me,” said Brokenrope. Now, an entire wall of Brokenrope's Minneapolis apartment is dedicated to his record collection. Some of that music is being heard again for the first time. And he says he's collecting for more than the sake of collecting. He wants to re-introduce the music he's found back to Indigenous communities. “A lot of people obviously don't have the time to go dig through a bunch of thrift stores in the Southwest,” said Brokenrope. When he finds those rare records, he posts them to social media. Curated music sets go to YouTube, and photos of album covers are posted to his Instagram page, Wathéča Records. For him, accessibility is a way to build community around music.  He estimates he has a collection of about 300 records by Indigenous artists from various genres— mostly country, folk, rock from the 1960s through the late 80s. “These records can have life again and reach the people that maybe forgot about them or lost their copy. Or those folks who made them have journeyed on, but their kids are still around and remember their dad or mom playing guitar and singing.” Brokenrope says for him artists like Buddy Red Bow, a Lakota country singer who was recording in the 1970s, is one example of the kind connection a person can make through listening. “As someone who works a lot with language to hear him speak or sing a song in Lakota and English and then to hear his dad on the recording as well singing in Lakota or speaking ... it's just so moving and just a beautiful thing to experience.” Translating Analog to Digital Collecting vinyl brings Brokenrope into conversation with a lot of fellow record collectors. It's an opportunity to build a network of people who share his passion. On a January evening, Brokenrope met with a fellow Indigenous collector, David McCloud, who is Anishinaabe from Minegoziibe First Nation in northern Manitoba. “When somebody asks me, ‘How do you collect Indigenous records?'” said McCloud to Brokenrope. “That's years and years of building relationships.” The two compared notes during their virtual meeting about their shared passion. The conversation included their mutual appreciation for music and much more. Both described years spent digging for vinyl and multiple acts of converting analog music to digital as a method of translation between generations. They also talk about the ways Indigenous musicians have busted through the myths of Indigenous people as the vanishing American and the ways artists have subverted stereotypes and found self-expression. “Our people were supposed to disappear,” said McCloud. “If you look at the history of it, since the possibility of recording began, Indigenous people were there, right up until now.” McCloud motioned to his own collection of recordings and shared a piece of wisdom. “You never finish. You never know it all. You're never gonna have it all,” McCloud said. Click here.https://youtube.com/shorts/pzhye1ZzsnM?si=Qx9suBpTUfoKRCfZDJing in the Dakota language On a Friday evening in early March, Brokenrope plays a set of deep cuts inside a St. Paul record store. DJing has become another way Brokenrope shares his love for vinyl.  Music lovers will recognize Link Wray and His Ray Men covering Dylan's “Girl from The North Country.” Fellow collectors may know Karen Dalton's bluesy “Something On Your Mind.” Lots of people will hum along to popular Redbone refrains. The powwow crowd will sing every single word of Keith Secola's “NDN Kars.” And it's the dollar bin gems — the stuff lots of people may have heard years ago or may have never heard before — where his collection shines. Brokenrope's collection reflects years of digging for rare vinyl recordings. In his set, A. Paul Ortega's powerful singing on “Chicago,” Arliene Nofchissey Williams & Carnes Burson performing the bridge on “Go My Son,” and Morris Belknap's “On That Dusty Road To San Carlos,” give listeners a sense of the themes important to Native musicians over decades.  While connecting the tunes during his DJ sets, Brokenrope adds another act of translation. As an educator, Brokenrope has been a part of a growing language movement to revitalize the Dakota language.  He often DJs his sets in the Dakota language. Sharing music of from his collection in Dakota is an invitation to Indigenous people to be in conversation with one another in a digital world. “To be able to use my tribe's language and be able to create more content in it,” he said. “And have that represented more, just felt really in line with the kind of music we're playing.” 

Not much snow will remain after this week's winter warmup, but the annual Great Northern Festival starts on Thursday to remind us of the ways Minnesotans get creative in our state's deep cold.

When classical composers incorporate indigenous music into their work, it's more than just cultural appropriation, because indigenous songs are more than just songs: they serve as medicine, law, and history. So what would it mean to redress such misuses, and to bring an indigenous worldview into Western art music? A conversation with Dylan Robinson about appropriation, repatriation, and his path towards becoming a scholar. (And, yes, we talk about Roomful of Teeth.)Dylan Robinson is Associate Professor, School of Music at the University of British ColumbiaShow notes and more over at soundexpertise.org!Questions?

The myriad of indigenous communities in Canada share a painful history. But today, Canada's indigenous artists are using music, from rock to round dance, to interrogate still-felt horrors, to heal, and to share stories, culture and languages that were violently suppressed for decades. In Toronto, the traditional territory of the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and many other nations, we meet Jeremy Dutcher. His debut album Wolastoqiyik Lintuwakonawa, is sung entirely in the language of his Wolastoq community, and is a mix of opera, pop melodies and piano. In the city of London, the traditional territory of peoples such as the Attawandaron and Anishinaabeg, Anishinaabe musician Adam Sturgeon puts healing at the forefront of his bands Status/Non-Status and Ombiigizi's artistic vision. Further west, in Winnipeg, lives composer Melody McKiver. They are an assistant professor of Indigenous Music at the University of Manitoba, where they are putting together courses to educate students on indigenous history, through the lens of music. They are a member of the Obishikokaang First Nation. Even further west, in the Treaty 6 territory of Alberta, lives Fawn Wood. A Plains Cree and Salish Tribes traditional singer, Fawn is one of the first female indigenous musicians to use a hand drum in her music.

The implications for indigenous peoples also include: realization of the virtues of cross-cultural influences; appreciation of the values of other cultures as accruing to the wealth of human experience and the freedom of all to share in such values without necessarily giving up their respective identities' avoidance of parochial attitudes which degenerate into ethnic and cultural prejudices' and, above all, appreciation of the necessity to maintain a global perspective within which the particulars of indigenous expression can find an enduring context…”  -Universal House of Justice 5.

For example, they should be guaranteed the full rights of citizenship, and all acts of discriminations against them, which may have developed over the years, should be eliminated. At the same time, it would be unseemly for the demands for their rights to make, on the basis of their indigenousness, a special claim to exclusive rights and privileges which exceed the necessity to redress injustices…” -Universal House of Justice 10.

Indigenous Cafe brings you music, conversation and inspiration from the Indigenous People of North America and the Indigenous People from all over the world. On this weeks journey, we are traveling with a show titled, “Our Story To Tell.” Your host, Roman Orona, expressing his thoughts on how healing generational trauma begins with “telling our story.” The speaking of the Native/Indigenous truth allows the teller to give an inspirational and truthful expression of what we have experienced in life. When we allow others to speak on our behalf, we give them our power and that story becomes skewed through the vision of someone who doesn't know the truth from experience. The telling of our story as Native/Indigenous People has to come from us. Allies can not be our storyteller any more. If they want to help in getting the Native/Indigenous story heard, then help open space for it to be heard. They can speak of their historical truths and trauma their ancestors have caused even if they didn't do it because that story is not ours to tell. We can then meet at the healing!!

Canada recognizes the best in music with the annual Juno Awards and this year Indigenous musicians have twice the reason to celebrate. There are now two Indigenous music awards: one for contemporary music and one for traditional music. Our Indigi-musicologists Jarett Martineau, Jade Harper and Alan Greyeyes weigh in on the celebration and contention. She is one of Turtle Island's most recognized and beloved voices. Susan Aglukark has had an incredible music career spanning over 30 years, earning herself three Juno awards and 11 nominations. This year, she's been honoured with the Humanitarian Award for her long-standing commitment to improving the lives of Indigenous youth in the North. In a feature interview with Rosanna Deerchild, Aglukark shares why that work is so important to her and how music has been healing in her own life. Jayli Wolf and Shawnee Kish are both first-time nominees for Contemporary Indigenous Artist or Group of the Year. Both artists share personal stories through their music. Jayli didn't know she was Indigenous growing up, but she has since embraced her identity and that shines through in her music. Her nominated album, Wild Whisper blends traditional Indigenous sounds with an electronic-R&B-style. Shawnee Kish is a proud two-spirit Mohawk artist who has been compared to Amy Winehouse and Etta James. In her Juno-nominated self-titled debut EP, she uses her music to talk about everything from love and romance, to misogyny in the music industry. Nimkii Osawamick makes music as an act of decolonization. His band Nimkii and the Ninniis is nominated for Traditional Indigenous Artist or Group of the Year. Their EP Nang Giizhigoong means "star realm" in Anishinaabemowin and is a collection of heart thumping drums and choral singing.
