For the Pacific Post’s inaugural MUSIC segment, we will be sharing with you the most iconic sounds the Moana (sea) has to offer.
Included below is New Zealand’s most well-known waiata (traditional Māori song), Poi E (pronounced poï é).
Poi E was the first ever Māori song to reach number 1 on the New Zealand music billboards, signifying an unprecedented shift to social acceptance of indigenous music in the Land of the Long White Cloud (New Zealand).
Whakarongo atu nei! Chuck it a listen here!
