Sites to see for Polynesian music

Hello all, I am a huge fan of the music from the South Pacific or Polynesia. I have been looking for sites where I could buy and download some if the music from this part of the world. I have seen a couple of performances by their traditional dancers and singers and must admit it blew me away. There's so much energy and power packed in the music and dance that at times it felt surreal. Especially strong is chanting where a group of men would chant in a very low voice - it gets right to your core...

So far I have been able to find only one site where I was able to buy some tracks, especially drumming tracks. The site is www.summertimemusic.co.nz - they have a lot of Cook Islands music and Tahitian music.

And all tracks are in mp3 download tracks. They have some videos there too, but no twith dancing :(

And most of the Tahitian songs are in French (not much help to me :( )

It would be great if the visitors could let everyone know whether there are any other sites of this sort with music for download.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
