Song of the Mamuna Tribe of South Papua<\/strong><\/a>
\nThis is just a snippet, there\u2019s more if you like. It is original and has not been spoilt by western ideas of what music should sound like. It also offers a touching view of the natural environment the Mamunas still enjoy. Recently a YouTuber named Drew Binsky visited Papua New Guinea in search of the remote civilisations in the deep jungle. According to the internets – Wiki, mostly – the tribes in this jungle have extremely infrequent contact with the outside world. Before the late 1970’s, they had nonwe\u00a0– for over 65,000 years Drew Binsky stayed with the Mamuna Tribe for two days and made a half-hour long documentary about his experience getting there, meeting them, and what their world is like.
