’Song of the Mamuna Tribe’ On All Streaming Platforms ⏯️🎶
To hear their raw vocals without my added harmony and background vocals, refer to Drew Binsky’s Papua Island documentary at 13:04 into the video 🙏
I stumbled upon this tiny segment in a larger documentary by @drewbinsky on his journey to learn about tribal life in the Papuan rainforest. The sincerity and purity in this man’s voice just shook me to my core.
Drew originally set out to meet the Korowai people to learn about and document the nature of their cannibalism, but was accidentally taken to a different group called the Mamuna tribe, who welcomed him with open arms, and allegedly have only recently had their first contact with humans of the modern industrialized world.
I think it says something remarkable that they have a song that I can so immediately and viscerally connect with, even though our cultural and musical references—on the surface—might be as distant as they get. On top of that, the fact that I can be sitting here in my little Canadian cabin, and not only hear, but sing alongside these people, and then share that with the world, is profound to me.
Thank you Drew for capturing their song and sharing it with us 🙏💙
