    Author: Whirimako Black

    The release of this album is to be applauded as it displays a combination of self-initiative from the musicians and a deep sense of preserving a culture. I know nothing of Whirimako Black other than she has one of the most sensual and beautiful voices I have ever heard. It simply floats into the unconscious, makes you stop doing whatever you are doing and leaves you aching for more. Try Engari Te Tītī, which evokes mysticism in a misty fern forest, or he Koha Kii Na Taku Kui, with a wonderful sax solo that wouldn't stand out of place on any FM station. An extraordinary musical adventure. If there is any musical justice this will be the New Zealand album of the year.
