APRA NZ is joining forces with songwriters, broadcasters, funders, record labels and other music entities, to support the emergence of a bilingual music industry.

"We’re pulling together a maramataka/calendar of special events such as Matariki and Te Wiki o te Reo Māori, to create awareness and opportunity for waiata punctuations around the country, throughout 2021”.

Hinewehi joins us on the phone to discuss the importance of the new project, and introduce us to some new Māori music
