In addition to the traditional music of the Native American groups, there now exist pan-tribal and inter-tribal genres as well as distinct Native American subgenres of popular music including: rock, blues, hip hop, classical, film music and reggae, as well as unique popular styles like waila ("chicken scratch").
Music and history are tightly interwoven in Native American life. A tribe's history is constantly told and retold through music, which keeps alive an oral narrative of history. These historical narratives vary widely from tribe to tribe, and are an integral part of tribal identity. However, their historical authenticity cannot be verified; aside from supposition and some archaeological evidence, the earliest documentation of Native American music came with the arrival of European explorers.

I love that "Dave the butcher" crops up again in "16 Shells From A Thirty-Ought Six" - this track gives you a little context about him, I think.

Hes like childish gambino in the way he manages to be both a fantastic actor and musician

reminds me a lot of the shorter tracks off Sun Ra's Atlantis with the sort of free-form keyboardism and percussion. in a way it's free jazz haha
@nicolhaidi
come già commentato da qualcun altro, sembra veramente la colonna sonora di un parco giochi dell'orrore

Like a scary feria
@E-s.thoughts
Inspired in a particularly free way on Bizet's Habanera, it seems. A perfect transition between "Shore Leave" and "Johnsburg, Illinois".

Ah, hell. It's ALL kick ass, and warped--in a good way.
