Waak Waak Djungi – Waak Waak ga Min Min

Efficient Space is honoured to be sharing the little heard recordings of three Yolngu songmen from Northeast Arnhem Land – Bobby Bunnungurr, Jimmy Djamunba and Peter Milaynga (d. 2007) – working in collaboration with Victorian musician Peter Mumme.

Waak Waak Djungi’s sprawling vocal/electronic soundscapes are like nothing we’ve heard before – reimagining the traditional songs of the Yolngu peoples of far-northern Australia; black crows and white cockatoos, sharing, creation spirits and of leaving and returning home to country. 

Tracing 1997 back to many millennia ago, this is a captivating window into the richness of Aboriginal culture and collaboration.
