NahenaheNet Hawaiian Music Podcast #54

Back in February or so I announced that I would be discontinuing the Nahenahe.net podcast, and do perhaps one more. Its taken so long that I decided to do at least a few more, shorter podcasts (to match my attention span) before I officially end them. This is the first, it contains a song from Hōkū Zuttermeister and a remix I did of a song from Kenneth Makaukāne’s CD, Makuakāne. Also note that you can now simply listen to the podcast from this page without subscribing to the blog feed, simply click on the player at the bottom of this post.

I’m giving away a copy of the Barefoot Native’s CD in the podcast. The questions are in the podcast, but no the translation. Two questions, you must answer both correctly in order to be eligible for the drawing. If no one answers the questions correctly in the next week or so I’ll consider redoing the giveaway outside of the podcast and in English.

This is the last NahenaheNet podcast that I will record in English, at least for the foreseeable future. The next complete podcast and all subsequent ones will be ma ka ‘ōlelo Hawai‘i wale nō, that is in the Hawaiian language only. I will post a summary in English of what I discuss on the podcast listing on Nahenahe.net, but it will not be a complete translation. I did not make this decision lightly, and will discuss it in more depth here later. The Nahenahe.net blog itself will continue to be in English.

Mahalo to everyone who participated in the poll, but in the end, the decision was ultimately mine to make. Mahalo for your understanding and (hopefully) continued support.
