Joe Rainey¡¯s Mixtape

Verity Sharp shares a mixtape from Native American pow wow singer and archivist Joe Rainey. Plus new music from Matmos and a sound collage inspired by Korean musical storytelling.

Verity Sharp shares a mixtape from Native American pow wow singer Joe Rainey. Pow wows are indigenous cultural gatherings featuring group singing and dancing, with a central focus on celebrating heritage and tradition. Rainey¡¯s debut album Niineta recontextualises the ancient pow wow accompanied by cinematic, bass-heavy production from producer Andrew Broder. Born and raised in Minneapolis, a city with one of the largest and proudest Native American populations in the United States, Rainey is an enrolled member of the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians in Northern Minnesota. A lifelong music lover and archivist, he is now taking time to focus on ensuring the transmission of pow wow traditions to the next generation.

Elsewhere in the show Verity dives into an emotional sound collage by Korean-American artist Lucy Liyou, pulling from their childhood memories and taking inspiration from Pansori, a style of Korean musical storytelling. Plus there¡¯s music from Baltimore-based electronic duo Matmos working with Polish polymath Bogus?aw Schaeffer and a story of solitude from singer and viola player Alison Cotton.
